Judges Comment

Classic photography, or simply classic composition and use of lines and rhythm in a photo. It's just a moment you like to be part of.

Photographers Comment

Carol-Lynn Rössel, Winthrop, Maine, USA. Thank you! I am absolutely delighted to have my photograph (taken on the porch on the Oceanic Hotel on Star Island, New Hampshire), chosen in the competition. Star Island is a half-mile of granite (an old mountain top) ten miles off the Atlantic Coast, one of the Isles of Shoals. I took the photo on Tri-X with my Zorkii 4K and its Industar 50 lens. I love old Russian lenses and the timeless quality they impart. Working with a rangefinder is a new delight for me. I've recently purchased a new/old Leica 3M, onto which, with an adaptor, the lenses, fortunately, fit. My photographs are hybrids. I scan negatives into my Mac, work on them in Photoshop and print digitally. This photo needed little post-processing. Thank you again for this honor. Wow!
