- Here is a stunning landscape photograph. So many layers and all that foreground texture, the floating mist and a strong silhouette all come together to compliment this wonderful waterfall. I absolutely love this and the monochrome only adds to the atmosphere. Well done indeed, you win this round!

- This is beautiful and fresh and pastel. We feel the freeze and the isolation of this superbly composed winter snow scene in the mountains. Big well done!

- Here is a technically perfect night shot, the stars, the reflection, the wilderness and of course the adventure that the tent brings to this composition. Beautiful and perfect, well done.

- You have placed the waterfall so boldly in the center so that the stream draws a strong line, leading my eye up to the sky, and back down again. It is a beautifully proportioned shot and a great landscape. Well done!

- It is always risky shooting into the sun but you have got away with this very well. I love the golden tones, the balanced composition and the peace that comes with a flock of sheep.

- This is a wonderful scene with soft slanting sunlight which really sets off the trees and rock formations. I am not a great lover of sunsets but you have mastered this so well.

- The clever square crop brings strength to this photograph. The autumn colours are lovely and real, the reflection perfectly calm. Your grad filter (or maybe it is your processing) is a little heavy, making the reflection lighter than the reality which is a little misleading, but the general tonality of this photograph is stunning.

- My name is Günther Reissner and I live in Austria. This shot was taken just before sunset in the fall at the Gosau Lake, with the Dachstein Peak reflecting in it beautifully. I used a wide angle lens on my Nikon D610. Postprocessing was done in LR and Color Efex Pro. Thanks for the award and congrats to the winner, well deserved.
