First Place

Poseidon’s Daughter        Rose Christner

Rose writes about her image:

If you really want to have a challenge in photography, try light painting with the ocean behind you! My main concern was to keep my model safe, warm and dry. Layers of warm clothes and rain gear and waterproof boots under her dress did the trick. Remember that the ocean puts out a lot of reflective light even in the fog here. Both hands are busy. Remote trigger in one and a light tube in the other. CONCENTRATE! Be sure to cue your model!

Canon EOS R  F5.6, Bulb mode, 13.7 sec. ISO 100 at 24mm, on a tripod, hand remote and portrait light.

May 2021 Digital Winners – Assigned Category – Architecture

First Place

Old Home in Film        Larry Pollock

Larry writes about his image:

The assigned category of Architecture gave me an excuse to finally get downtown Grants Pass to take a set of photos of this iconic building. Although it is a nice yellow with a red door, I felt it needed an old film look to it. Carefully aligning the front hand real with the double doors, I created a nice symmetry. The image was captured just after sunset and processed in Photoshop with help from Silver Efex Pro for the black and white conversion.

Shot on a Fuji XT-4, 20mm, 1/5 sec, f/7.1, ISO 1600

May 2021 Digital Winners – Altered Reality Category

First Place

Digital Capture        Larry Pollock

Larry writes about his image:
Two images edited together to create the illusion of the camera sucking the landscape image into the camera and showing up on the back screen. The Altered Reality section of the competition allows for creating something you can’t see in reality. I had a vision of creating a fun expression of what a camera does as well as showing motion. Shot on a Fuji X-T4. Edited in Photoshop.
