    I am not sure exactly which 4 she picked as so many are just incredible....I love the scale, the textures, colors, content and how she sometimes breaks traditional composition rules to enhance the "bigness of Africa" landscapes.

    Here is the link to one of their websites that contains links to both wildlife arts studio and their Atkins Photography business... I also emailed Hilary that I had posted her accolades and hopefully she will share the outstanding images.

    Hilary - Congratulations and well done! Looking forward to hearing of more successes on Monday night. Steve, thanks for letting us know. You might want to ask one of the mods to move this from landscapes to the General Photography forum. It will probably be more widely seen there.

    Congrats again Hilary!

    Thanks Steve, totally unexpected and I feel very humbled by your kind words. Don, these images aren't on my website yet as I don't post them until their competition life cycle is over, however, a couple were posted on BPN for c&c when under development (OOTB) and I will attach a link later. Still have a bit to get through here in Melbourne.

    Thanks Morkel and Hazel. Appreciate the support. Have to fly back to Melbourne for the awards tonight so feeling highly stressed. Not at all comfortable in this kind of spotlight.

    Morkel, I have some landscapes lined up, just been a bit frantic.

    LOL Steve! Terry did well too, a silver distinction with the wildebeest shot I didn't get ... Grrrrr. But I did offer advice with pp even though I was thinking about whether I should or not.
    He managed another 2 silvers so as a family we can't grizzle about the results. At the banquet I didn't drink anything whilst all around me the stars of Australian photography got messy. A short video on my FB page shows a little.
