I am honored to get to judge this competition and I think it was an existing competition and thank you all for your pictures
noelcmn, good try. a little bit of overexpose in in the image that you could make it better with some pp. in all with the black background you created a good picture.
jdoss, your picture has a vey good DoF and I like those bokeh on piano keys created by flash light. you placed the piano in the frame very well. I like your picture it's excellent
patrick9, you took a good family picture!
and you used the onboard flash very well and there is no over expose. excellent job dude.
mehrdad (mtux), the picture you took with fifty nifty is really eye catching. if the composition is not random and you chose it yourself and I believe so, the background of the dragon fly is very good. those two trunks (if I am not mistaken) are like frames and the green color become the background color. The wing and tail of the dragon fly is beautifully placed in the picture. in all it's a good technical picture. well done Mehrdad.
bill2849, it a good meaningfull shot. The background texture goes with the automn leaf and the PP is good. well done.
and finally
scomatic, wow! that's the word came to my mind when I saw your picture
. The shot is eye catching and transfixes people.
bravo! the idea was good and the picture arrived on time ;-)
The result of the competition is as follow:
3rd: jdoss
2nd: Mtux
1st: scomatic
