- Thank you! I think this is one of my best photos from 2019, definitely the most interesting one. It was the very first time I had an opportunity to shoot a helicopter in a hangar with a strobe light. I discovered that shooting aircraft and properly lit it is much harder than cars, mostly due to size and a lot of curves and angles. This picture was taken during a day in a hangar using Canon 5DSR, 50mm Sigma 1.4 and Godox AD600pro light.

- Very close runner up in this round with this very well thought out and dramatic piece of work. I really like the positioning and the lighting on this with the water really lifts the image.

- This is a an image that really stands out. Perhaps its not technically prefect however it demands attention and really works with the clever use of DOF and position / framing. Well done

- This is an eye catching image that stood out to me. The position and height are good and work really well. It could have been good to get a little bit more distance on it to give it a little more space but that said it works and is a credit to the photographer.

- A classic example of how using available light in the right way can really work. The position is good and the level the image was shot at is dictated I would imagine by the sun in the background. Nice piece of work and well done.

- Nice piece of dramatic work of the car and position and level are really good adding to the feel of power here. My only thought would be that it is possibly a little too much with the moon, perhaps without would be stronger but thats its of course just one opinion. Well done.

- I wanted to do something a bit different to really stand out. The overpowering moon was a part of the plan, but I see how it can steal the attention from the car. My proper attempt to use a car shot at a different location and creating a final picture on a new backplate. Thank you for the Mark and feedback!

- A very different style and type of image here but one that tells a story well and the use of black and white works really well also.

- Thank you for the mark of excellence. This photo was shot in the Aeroscopia museum in Toulouse with a canon 5d4. In the picture, you can see a Super Guppy which is today no more used. Today, the Beluga is used by Airbus to bring together the pieces of the aircraft in the same factory. The small mock-up on the right bottom of the picture is a Beluga.
