    Default Theme Winners - Chiaroscuro

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Here are the winners! Some very nice and interesting images for this theme.

    First Place - Manhattan 30 Stories Up - Michael Gerald-Yamasaki
    This image truly stands out from the crowd with its very strong graphic look, its whole interplay of light and dark areas, and its excellent composition. Outstanding job, Michael!

    Second Place - Ring-necked Duck - Kerry Perkins
    I like the low-key look to this one and how the duck blends with the BG. The head-on pose and tight crop makes for an excellent in-your-face look. Well done, Kerry!

    Third Place - Backlit Weed - Gary Ellwein
    Nice backlighting on this image, which the processing enhances very well. Well done, Gary!
    God Bless

    Christopher,

    Thanks much for your comment & the recognition. And thanks for judging. This is a particularly difficult theme. I failed at a couple of recent images so I went back for the Manhattan shot.

    Congratulations Kerry & Gary.

    Cheers,

    -Michael-
