June monthly photo comp: the wrap-up!
Congratulations to Wade Cramer who has won our June ‘Australian landscapes’ photo competition with his image Capital Sunrise Framed, as judged by our guest judge, astro photography specialist Steven Morris.
Speaking about the shot, Steven said:
"Capital Sunrise is the winner for me. I myself don’t generally shoot a lot of architecture in my shots however this is really nicely photographed.
What I like about the image is the way it’s framed with the branches and leaves framing the subject. The second element in this image is the reflections, so timing this shot with still conditions achieve the reflections along with minimal blur from the trees and leaves framing the subject.
The third element in this image I like are the tones and colours which are nicely exposed for without any highlights blowing out. With all these elements together it has to be my vote for the winner."
