The best photography in an international shootout

Featured Work

Scare Crow by Bryan Freeman

Taken by my lovely wife (all systems auto on the Canon 400D), processed by yours trooly in photoshop, then processed some more, added to a few other programs, played around with it like a cat with a new toy, swish, swish, thwak! Did some more stuff to it then added it back into photoshop for the final touches, similar to a killer whale knocking the stuffing out of a seal that we’ve all seen on tv and exclaimed, whilst grimacing “Ouch, that’s gotta hurt” and cringed at the cruelty of animals but not realised just how cruel humans are to each other on a daily/second-tick-tock, tick-tock basis! BTW, I hope you like this image – it’s me. ;-) Canon 400D / Canon 18-55mm Lens

Luib Reflected in Loch Ainort.. Isle of Skye. by PhotosEcosse

Luib is a very small township passed on the main road from Broadford to Portree, on the beautiful Isle of Skye. It sits in a wonderful position at the head of the Loch, surrounded by the Hills, with a magnificent waterfall not far up the road. / Timing is difficult with this scene, ....first the light has to be ‘right’, plus you have to be there when the tide is in, AND it has to be a calm day….....not so easy on this Hebridean Island, LOL !! / I got this in New Year 2009, when we had just one week of proper old fashioned Winter ! Taken on my Canon EOS 40D, tripod, polariser, f22, 0.3 sec, iso 100, cloudy wb, RAW file processed in PS CS3, levels/curves/......
Another Storm ,Another Day by mikebov

Newhaven Lighthouse / Sussex For the 3rd weekend in the last 4, we have been hit by severe storms. / From my house, I could see a glimmer of light out to the west . I jumped into the car and arrived at Newhaven Harbour 5 minutes later. Rather pleased with this image, as it was taken through driving rain & salt spray. The image is quite heavily cropped & resized Panasonic G1
Liathach, The Tree, and Loch Clair. by PhotosEcosse

Paragliding Heaven by Michael Matthews

A paraglider has jumped off the cliff at the famous Bald Hill near Stanwell Tops & soars like an eagle over this heavenly sight of Stanwell Park beach before landing in Stanwell Park. I think that is where they land. This was a fairly hot day. I’ll be back for more shots when it’s a bit cooler & in the meantime dream about soaring like an eagle like they have done. A tandem flight sounds good. A larger view will show the Sea Cliff bridge winding around the coast. / This area is just south of Sydney, Australia.
