July 2011 Photography Competition - Entries

[HoHoHo]

I don't envy the judging this month.

I think all of the entries were fantastic, a really good selection and all on theme.

Really excited to be placed at all given the standard and hats off to the winner.

Cheers

Right, this was a ridiculously difficult decision. I've never seen such an active montly competition. So to reflect that, I've decided to do a top 5.

I spent quite a while trying to pick number 5 because I wanted to mention about another 4 people, but here it is, HoHoHo's boat scene:



I feel bad for not putting this shot in the top 3, it's superb. Number 4 is JSS 911:



In at number 3, such a serene and soft shot. Stunning yet again by John185K:



Ok, Baz, this set was epic. That is the perfect word for every picture. This particular picture is my second favourite and you might wish to do me harm for saying this, but your original entry was may favourite Never-the-less, an amazing shot and you certainly grafted for it! Baz7175 at number 2:



So I'm a big fan of this guy's work, but I didn't let that cloud my judgement. To me, the scene has been captured inch perfectly and so from a technical viewpoint and a not so technical stance this is my all round winner. RobDickinson's measured capture:




Over to you, Rob!

Well done Rob

My top 5 would have been a lot like this, so well judged Robbie

I've updated the Wiki so it's all up to you now, Rob. I hope judging turns out to be a little easier for you
