“Looking down on the White House”
© Copyright Timothy P. McIntosh
Thank you to everyone who entered the Photobird Photo Contest for November! The theme was “Down” and you submitted a great collection of unique entries. There was a photo looking down into the Grand Canyon, two photos with stairs going down, a photo of two boys having way too much fun with water pouring down, and a photo of a couple of old chairs for sittin’ down for a little chit-chat.
Congratulations to Timothy P. McIntosh, winner of the Photobird Award with his photo “Looking down on the White House” shown above. I wrote about Timothy’s great photo a couple of weeks ago. In his photo, his son is looking down to the White House from the Washington Monument. The composition, lighting, and exposure are excellent in this photo, even though the photo is challenged by mixing indoor and outdoor subjects.
Congratulations to Ritu, winner of the People’s Choice Award with the photo “Mermaid going down to the sea“. I wrote about the photo last week, and I’m still not certain that mermaids actually exist. But it’s a beautiful photo, with the way the sun is reflecting off the waves and the silhouette of the, um, mermaid.
Timothy and Ritu will each receive the following prizes:
- Photobird account with 500MB storage space
- 2GB SanDisk Ultra II memory card
- Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson
Congratulations again to both winners!
What goes up must go down. And what goes down must go up. “Up” is the theme for the Photobird Photo Contest for December. The Photobird Photo Contest is free to enter, so be sure to get your entry in and have your friends vote on their favorite photos before month’s end.
