  • Here is a beautiful composition, an image of complimentary colours and soft tones. You have caught lovely movement, the vintage car and the rainfall blurring nicely and creating a strong anchor point with the contrasting static figure with umbrella. There is a wholesome real feel of a damp day in Cuba. Very well done, you win this round!

  • This most simple looking shot of London is so striking. Minimal with a hard contrast, it is a game of shapes with a couple of eye-pulling figures. It is a lovely magnetic shot, well done.

  • This is nice, a story we can all relate to. We feel the the child’s anxiety over having his hair cut and the concentration of the bearded barber who is himself under pressure, observed by the bearded picture on the wall. And what a brave tight crop!

  • A clever low angle makes this come alive, fruit vendor action with several layers of interest and a nice street atmosphere. Well done.

  • Here is a lovely warm and colourful picture of happy child’s play in the street. Your timing is spot on, each child has his own space adding to the easy to admire and simple composition. Well done.

  • A clever frame where the boy and his father are set apart from the young crowd with the help of the very central, white umbrella. We then wander through the image, most effective, well done.

  • My name is Chihoko.Thank you so much for choosing my photography. This photo title is “, Want Dew”. I thought about the feeling of a white umbrella in the downtown area of ​​Shinjuku, Tokyo. The camera used was SIGMA VF-21. I write poetry with the same title. This is my style.The poems are posted on my Instagram. Thank you very much again.

  • There are so many different parts that make up this picture, not to mention the strong colour contrasts and amusing subject matter. Lovely composition and an early favourite.

  • This would also make a great travel shot. Jaipur’s extraordinary Albert Hall museum photographed through a wonderful flight of pigeons makes a contrasting backdrop to this powerful portrait of a hard thinking woman.
