Finalist in the Canon EOS Photo5 Competition - Close Up - "Pink" by Belinda Ireland

This pic is also in the finals! I have two phots in the finals. I’m so stunned, I hyperventilated when I realised. I kept looking at the Canon website saying to myself “No, you are looking at the entries section, not the finals”. But I wasn’t. Im so stoked. This is a big deal for me to get this far. (and I appear to have lost my ability to speak and have started most of these sentences with “I”. lol) This pic was taken when I was still unwell. I was wearing the same pyjamas as in the next shot (lucky pyjamas?) as I was nuking them everyday and then putting them straight back on again. I walked out to the end of my driveway and shot this pic in the early morning light.

Candy Stripes by Enrico Bettesworth

My third entry for the 2008 Canon Photo5 Competition. / Two more to go!!! Description / With the lead up to Christmas I thought this idea would be fun. I spray painted a candy cane white and added some new stripes using the red ribbon, giving it a whole new meaning. Photographed on a wood background, extra textures where overlaid and the image was cleaned up and enhanced in Photoshop.
Watching the thoughts go by by Enrico Bettesworth

My fifth and last entry for the 2008 Canon Photo5 Competition. / All done – at last!!! Description / I shot a series of bubbles which I later combined with another shot I took of a work mate. My aim was to represent our thoughts and how we sometimes can look into them too much. The elements were composited together in Photoshop, cleaned up and enhanced and this is the end result.

I find competitions in Australia so funny and dodgy, not that i am taking anything away from the finalists of the Canon 5 Competion, however the four images that i entered 3 of them where the top 3 viewed images on the site and the 4th was 6th. Ok i did do some advertsing on the images through facebook. / . / Have a look at the images below / 1 Mine / mine / These where the finalists / eg1 / eg2 / eg3 / eg4 / . / Second one / 1 mine / mine / These where the finalists / eg1 / eg2 / eg3 / eg4 / . / I know this may sound like sour grapes but i believe everyone should be given a fair playing field. You think i would of learnt my lesson from last year, when there was multiple winners with the same name. / . / Tell me your thoughts I would be really interested, and its not only my work have a look at the canon five group you will see what i mean, the calibre of work is way higher then the judges have choosen. / . / Further more / This is a break down on percentages of the Canon 5 competion / We will take that there is 1 in 700 chance that you will get into the finals / If we increase the odds and say that the person gets, 2 images into the finals / basically it worked out this way 1/700 * 1/700 = 1 in 490,000 chance of happening. / . / Lets look at the second equation / We will take that there is 1 in 6000 chance that you will get into the finals for the first year / If we increase the odds and say that the person gets, 2 images into the finals for two years / basically it worked out this way 1/6000 * 1/6000 = 1 in 36,000,000 chance of happening. / . / And its not happening once or twice it happens over and over again in this competition

Finalist in the Canon EOS Photo5 Competition - Potraiture - "Never Again" by Belinda Ireland

This pic is in the finals! I came back from China with two photos for the competition and was planning on doing the last three on my return. On my last night in Chengdu I ate a bad mushroom hot pot that gave me gastro for a week – the week I was going to take my three photos. I was contagious and not allowed out so I couldn’t ask anyone to model for me. I thought “tough, I’m, just going to take a pic of my situation”. So here is me, in my pyjamas with a wet nappy on my head. I blacked out the “lens” part of the cardboard glasses and went to bed. After this picture was taken I fell asleep, with the camera remote still in my hand.

Free Range by transmute

So this was one of my entries to the Canon Photo5 comp. Unfortunately not a finalist, so I guess I’ll need to keep saving for that 5D MkII :( Inspired by Phillipe Halsman’s ‘Dali/Milk Explosion’ (1957).
