First Place
Dreamscape – Larry Pollock
Larry says of his image: A composite of two images. The Model, Sara McDonald, and I shot set of fruit inspired images over 5 hours. Changing outfits every hour. This image with the orange theme fit well with my black and white image from dawn at Mesquite Dunes, Death Valley.
First Place (Tie)
In the Cold Morning Light — Rudy Dierks
Looking Up — Jim Ingraham
Jim says about his image: ”Looking Up” was taken at Reinhart Volunteer Park (All Sports Park). Taken with a zoom lens on a full-frame camera set at 460mm and an aperture of f5.6. ISO was 1600 and the shutter speed was 1/400th of a second handheld with vibration reduction on the lens. I sometimes see this particular ‘pose’ when there is a bird of prey overhead.

Underneath — Susan Sheets
Susan says about her image: I captured this mama fox and her kit on a sweltering July day this past year. The family took up residence under my shed until the kits were weaned and I enjoyed every minute of their stay. I spent numerous happy hours trying to catch them with my camera. I shot this with my Olympus EM1 MK3 camera and at 400mm.
