The small logging village of Jordan River is located on the rugged south west coast of Vancouver Island. The views change from solace to power depending on the day. This September sunset was casting golden light with tinges of rose, on the beach at low tide at 7:48 pm

Nice composition, you can almost hear her thoughts, as if she knows the couple in the background are kissing

Very personal and intimate portrait of a stranger - to me, I imagine a story in the mind of the subject - creates a portrait for me

Point & Shoot Competition #107 - Black on Snow

Thank you to all who participated in the December P&S contest, BLACK on SNOW. It is a busy month and several folks live where there is no snowfall, so I appreciate the lovely photos there were submitted. I narrowed it down to 4 shots and it was difficult to chose between these. Having never been in a position to choose the winner before, I feel humbled by it. Even so, here we go, it was difficult.

The Finalists and Winner :

3rd Place - Ehpen - Shot with the 1960 Olympus PEN on Quadra Island. What a great shot with that heavy snow on the branches and the black rails of the fence and blackness of the lane in the right foreground - Excellent Photo

2nd Place - Jacquot - Shot with the iPhone 7s . Definitely some black on snow in this one, and I love the added golden hue of those leaves. Makes me want to walk among those trees. Well Done.

1st Place and Winner - zman - Shot with the Pentax M1- The play of light and shadows on the snow, is wonderful. The blackness of those trees with the sunshine in the background, gets my 1st Place Vote. Congratulations Zman

Honourable Mention:

Titia - the Pentax Optio W20 with those Drench Heath Sheep - a real storyteller that one!

Congratulations to all. Zman, I know you will find a great subject for the JANUARY P&S contest. Looking forward to it.

That is a wonderful photo shot with that p&s. My husband used to have that same camera. I love the light off the left side of the frame and the fact that they are all so interested in what's over that rise. Well done.
