Good news from WPJA second contest of the year! …

Here are my award-winning photos from the latest 2009 WPJA contest, the second contest of the year.   I’m really happy having being  assigned a 1st placement in the ‘Getting Ready’ section (one of the most competitive and challenging sections of the general contest) and two 9th placements in the ‘Ceremony ‘and in the ‘Transportation’ sections. Here below are the photos along with the Judges comments. Have a look, I hope you like them. Let me know what you think.   Carlo

JUDGES COMMENTS: This photograph uses light brilliantly and I love all the layers and moments that are occurring in the scene. It’s a very intimate photograph that shows the photographer’s ability to capture everyone as if she or he were not there.

JUDGES COMMENTS: This image stood out against the others with good use of light and composition. It is a wonderfully humorous quiet moment.

JUDGES COMMENTS: This is the most complex composition of the competition, and its success in this arena brought it to this position. It’s clean and has nice light. The little girl at the bottom of the image was off in her own world, which gives the image more layers. Good execution of a complex moment

q2-1

 

JUDGES COMMENTS: Very, very well done graphic image. The repeating images of the yarmulkes remind one of the rice kernels that will be thrown after the wedding. Nice lens choice to accentuate the receding dots.

q2-2

 

JUDGES COMMENTS: Now there’s an unusual method of transportation. Lifting the bride off the boat and suspending her in mid-air give the picture a bit of a surreal feel. Very nicely composed with a spectator slightly off to the right to give the image a bit more of a cinema verite quality.

JUDGES COMMENTS: Nice action shot of the bride being lifted off a boat for a clear landing by the groom and an usher as another one looks on at right.
