29/3/2015

0 Comments

 
The judges and I had a hard time choosing the winners for each category from all of your fantastic entries, with much consideration and plenty of Jaffa Cakes to keep us going we have decided on the following images:

Category Competition Winners

Category: Leading Lines
Winner: Jim Brokensha
Jim's Website: http://www.jamesbrokensha.com/
Comment: The Judges were impressed with your use of one of the most basic elements of a street, the yellow lines, and how you have used depth of field within the image to give texture to the road and paint.

Category: Story Telling
Winner: Donna Rowe
Comment: The Judges were impressed with how you have the juxtaposition of the word 'stop' and the action of the skateboarder riding away and felt that this was a very strong story telling image.
Picture
Category: Reflections
Winner: John Bradburn
John's Website: http://www.johnbradburn.co.uk/
Comment: The Judges were impressed with how you have framed the text within your reflection and with how the puddle has been framed to lead the eye in from the bottom right corner.

Category: Pattern
Winner: Donna Rowe
Comment: The Judges were impressed with how you have combined the three different patterns within one image and how the tones and textures throughout compliment each other.

Category: Lighting
Winner: Jim Brokensha
Jim's Website: http://www.jamesbrokensha.com/
Comment: The judges felt that the lighting throughout the image is very effective in adding depth to the scene.

Category: Composition
Winner: John Bradburn
John's Website: http://www.johnbradburn.co.uk/
Comment: The judges felt that your use of the cut out squares and framing the two halves of a person within those squares was a clever use of composition. Download your winners badge here:

Overall Best Images 

There was a little confusion with entering for this category, there was an album for any specific uploads you wanted to go into the overall best images category, but also any images posted throughout the categories were automatically entered into the competition for the overall best image. So, with that said, here are our chosen winners:

3rd Place Overall was Donna Rowe with her pattern entry, well done for finding such a fantastic scene to photograph! Great work! Congratulations, you have won a £25 voucher towards a session with Devon Photography Training, Email me to claim at gemmiev@gemmiev.com

2nd Place Overall was Jim Brokensha's Yellow Lines image, such a great shot that really captures the idea of street photography with fantastic technical skill shown with your work. Very impressive. Congratulations, you have won a one hour one to one session via skype, or on location here at HQ! Email me to claim your prize and book your date. Gemmiev@gemmiev.com

1st Place (drum roll please) is Donna Rowe with her skateboarder image, the judges felt that your use of story telling, leading lines, focus, composition, lighting and tonal range was so impressive within this one shot, hence why we have chosen you as Devon Photography Training's Street Photography Overall Best Image of the Day Competition Winner! Well done! You have won a workshop space valued at £75! To claim your prize email Gemma at Gemmiev@gemmiev.com

I just have to share my latest edits, as a part of the services I offer I retouch other photographers work and one of my lovely regular clients, David Ballard, shot these images recently which he then asked me to work on. It was so much fun to work on them and I'm really please with how they came out and wanted to share so here they are... Let me know what you think with a comment?
