Wow! Tough month to judge!

The standard of all the entries was very high this month so congratulations and a big thank you to everyone that entered, it never ceases to amaze me that a motoring forum has such an amazing collection of photographers.

Without further ado, on to my top three.


In third place baz7175:


Hummer by www.bazpics.com, on Flickr

A technically very good photo and an all round excellent product shot. Well done Baz.

In second place McMacro:



I love this shot, it's very simple and yet manages to convey so much feeling. Brilliant Neil.

And finally, October's finest and winner of the hardest job on PH is ...

Ghosts on the Bridge by iainsr, on Flickr

Brilliant photo Iain, I love the detail and depth in this image as well as the perfectly controlled exposure and even the slightly disorientating off-centre composition. Your whole series of London night photographs has been of superb quality and this is truly one of your finest.

Incidentally, my former semi-professional photographer and long-time camera club chairman father is staying with me at the moment and I asked him how he would judge this months comp and he gave me three completely different shots, it just goes to show that everyone has their own tastes.

So there you go, it's now over to Iain to set November's competition, I hope it's as hard for him to judge as it has been for me.

Good choices Dogsey. You picked a tough category! My top 3 would have similar. I love McMacro's shot; very moody. What was your Dad's top 3?

Oddly enough, a colour photo very similar to Ghosts on a Bridge won in an in house photo comp at work a couple of years ago! Obviously good subject material.

Well done all.

He never got quite as far as final places but his top three were the waterskier by smoores, toasty's b&w arrows and Mrs Megy's boat.

Thanks Dogsey for 2nd place! Well done to Baz and Ian for the other two positions wink

Mine was taken from my old office window in the west end of Edinburgh. Pissing down one day, camera to hand, snap.
