TC 4 2024-25 Illusions 25.5 TC SPP Loretta Monteleone Pictorial Silver J2 A colourful creative image. The image would be improved by having the edges of the silhouette all very sharp. The shoes and bottom of the legs blend into the background. Thule Bluet Damselflies Mating 26 TC DP David Evans Nature Master Thor Seeks Cloud Gate 23 TC BPP Darlene Harris Pictorial Bronze J1 Good capture of a moment in time. Foreground, middle ground and background are in proportion to provide a good balance to the image space. Consider adding some contrast to the water and sky to reduce the overall flat lighting. Sri Lankan Purple Heron 23 TC BPP Darlene Harris Nature Bronze J2 Great feather detail in the heron. The bright water at the top of the frame draws the viewer#039;s eye. Consider cropping to eliminate the top band of water, thereby also allowing the heron to take up more of the frame. Sunset 24.5 TC SPP Barbara Bialon Pictorial Silver J1 This image has considerable impact with colour harmony being a strong feature. The choice of shutter speed to swirl the clouds and their reflection in the water makes for a well crafted image. Consider cropping some of the bottom to move the horizon off centre. Wandering Glider Dragonfly Top N 27 TC DP Doug Doede Nature Master Delicate Seaweed 25.5 TC GPP Karen Blunt Pictorial Gold Little Sarah Top P 26 TC GPP Peter McCusker Pictorial Gold J1 Superior execution of this high key portrait. Very appealing model with an engaging expression. She looks happy. Well done. Rocky#039;s Down Rocky's Down Top C 28 TC DP Greg Alderson Creative Master J3 Nice composition and the story has high impact. The subject is sharp and well-exposed and the colours look natural. The eerie clouds add to the impact. Assuming that this is a composite image, the work has been done seamlessly. Suggest darkening the legs visible below the birds on the left side as this area would be in shade and should be a little darker. Also, clone out the distracting, bright circle just to the right of the birds. Nicely Done!
