A huge thank you to all who participated in July’s Photo Challenge, entitled “Monochrome”. Our challenge was sponsored by Topaz Labs, who provided us with some awesome Photoshop and Lightroom plugins as prizes. Once again there was a strong field, and the judges had a hard time picking between the entries. Ultimately, these ones were hand picked as winners:
- Pavel – with his submission, “Sunflower Fading”.
This was the judges’ favourite for its use of textural layers to create strong interest in the image. Congratulations!Pavel picks up Topaz Labs Photoshop Plug-In Bundle worth $299 USD. Congratulations Pavel!
- Leslie-Anne Reid was also selected at random to receive a prize for Liking our page on Facebook. She picks up an individual Topaz Labs product of her choice for her efforts.
Honourable mentions also go to:
- slejhamer’s Triptych for its creative treatment and use of the complimentary blurred background,.
- LouGnar’s untitled photo for the intriguing story that it tells.
- NT73 they liked your ropes from the Cutty Sark
- Dennis your Ghost Ship made quite an impression as well
