Despite its bright highlights and dark shadows, giving a very wide range for the camera\u2019s sensor to record, Ian has managed to capture detail in every part of the image.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The verticals have been kept vertical, which helps the viewer appreciate the scale of the architecture. The perspective and lead-in lines take you through the image, but everything is brought together by the figure walking through the scene on the right. Silhouetted against the bright fog and carrying a bag, they make me start to ask questions.<\/p>\n<p>Where are they going? Where have they been? What is in their bag? Why are they the only person in the image and where is everyone else? This small but perfect detail completes the image. Creating a narrative that makes your viewer stop and ask questions always makes a picture all the more compelling and effective.\u2019<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147309 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/02_Jim_Cumming-601x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>2: Jim Cumming, Canada<\/h2>\n<p><strong>90 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 7D, 70-200mm at 123mm, 1\/500sec at f\/2.8, ISO 160<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wildlife in black &amp; white is notoriously difficult to do well. All too often, images bear all the hallmarks of simply being converted for the sake of it, rather than for the right reasons. Here, we have an outstanding example of an image that quite clearly works better in b&amp;w than it would in colour.<\/p>\n<p>Our eyes are drawn to the whites of the elks\u2019 eyes, and the almost perfect symmetry of the composition. The texture of the antlers and fur is almost three-dimensional, and the negative space created by those antlers is a crucial element of the shot. Set against a pure white background, the creatures almost jump out of the scene.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147310 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/03_Ron_Tear-601x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/>\n\n<h2>3: Ron Tear, UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>80 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 5D Mark III, 17-40mm at 40mm, 1\/8000sec at f\/6.3, ISO 1600<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ask most landscape photographers what they aim to achieve with their pictures, and they\u2019d probably say they want the viewer to feel part of the scene. This shot is a huge success on that front.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s extremely easy to imagine standing alongside the photographer as this picture was taken, drinking in the sheer majesty, depth and drama of the snow-covered mountainscape.<\/p>\n<p>Scale is provided, of course, by the line of climbers. Without them, there would be nowhere for the eye to settle. Finally, the range of tones is something Ansel Adams himself would be proud of.<\/p>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147311 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/04_Roger_Evans-408x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"408\" height=\"400\" \/>\n\n<h2><strong>4: Roger Evans, UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>70 points <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS-1D X, 300mm, 1\/2000sec at f\/2.8, ISO 64,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the same way as it can be tricky to make a successful wildlife image in black &amp; white (see our 2nd-placed shot), converting a sports image to mono needs to be done for all the right reasons.<\/p>\n<p>This outstanding capture of a diver in action is a case in point. In colour, this image would lose everything that makes it so powerful \u2013 the tightness of the diver\u2019s pose, the expression of concentration on her face and \u2013 above all \u2013 the sharpness and detail in every backlit droplet that\u2019s spraying from her hair as she spins.<\/p>\n<p>Beautifully timed, beautifully executed, and beautifully converted.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147312 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/05_Pete_Baker-347x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"347\" height=\"400\" \/>\n\n<h2>5: Pete Baker, UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>60 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 80D, 30mm, 1\/125sec at f\/7.1, ISO 250<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is the kind of action shot that appears very simple, but we expect it took a great many shots to achieve one where everything came together in the way it does here.<\/p>\n<p>The dancer\u2019s leap appears almost effortless, and her releasing of the flour is perfectly timed. The directon of the light creates an almost three-dimensional effect and is very nicely handled indeed. Converting to black &amp; white allows the viewer to appreciate the overall shape and tone.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147313 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/06_Wendy_Davies-601x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>6: Wendy Davies, UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>50 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 7D Mark II, 28mm, 1\/1000sec at f\/8, ISO 1000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here, Wendy has created a beautifully blended composite of two separate images, which come together to make a very effective whole. With both bird and man silhouetted perfectly within the white rectangle on the wall behind, she has created a frame within a frame.<\/p>\n<p>The image could be timeless were it not for the subject\u2019s smartphone. The textures and tones of the background and the cobbled street create a perfect backdrop for the foreground interest.<\/p>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147314 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/07_April_Thomas-267x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>7: April Thomas, USA<\/h2>\n<p><strong>45 points <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 5D Mark III, 24-105mm at 55mm, 1\/125sec at f\/5.6, ISO 2000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A lovely low-key portrait that displays a mastery of styling, lighting, posing and processing, all of which come together to create a compelling and fascinating whole. April has managed to keep the majority of the tones dark, but without allowing them to block up or go flat, retaining the depth and smoothness of the model\u2019s skin and hair.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, there\u2019s also an intriguing ambiguity to the image that draws you in and makes you question your initial assumptions. All in all, a very intelligently created photograph.<\/p>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147315 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/08_June_Fox-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>8: June Fox UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>40 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 5D Mark III, 100-400mm at 153mm, 1\/250sec at f\/8, ISO 800<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When shooting storm images, it can be easy to get carried away by the sheer drama, forgetting that composition is as important as ever.<\/p>\n<p>Here, June has managed not to get overexcited by the epic wave, and compose with the lighthouse in just the right part of the frame to provide balance, stillness and scale. This makes the fury of the wave itself all the more dramatic and terrifying.<\/p>\n<p>The way it streams into the frame from the right makes it appear to be attacking the lighthouse \u2013 which, in many ways, it is!<\/p>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147316 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/09_Vince_Lavender-601x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>9: Vince Lavender, UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>35 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 700D, 70-300mm at 70mm, 1\/4000sec at f\/5.6, ISO 6400<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We see a lot of minimal images in this round \u2013 not surprisingly, as the black-&amp;-white medium lends itself perfectly to such an approach.<\/p>\n<p>This is a particularly good example, which makes confident use of both empty space and cropping. The composition is spot on, with the stick-like figures placed perfectly in the frame.<\/p>\n<p>An important consideration is that they are walking from left to right \u2013 towards the lifeguard tower \u2013 rather than out of the frame, which would have weakened the scene substantially. Very well executed overall.<\/p>\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147317 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/10_Sirsendu_Gayen-602x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"602\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<h2>10: Sirsendu Gayen, India<\/h2>\n<p><strong>30pts <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Nikon D610, 15-30mm at 19mm, 1\/60sec at f\/14, ISO 125 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So often, ultra-wideangle lenses can be used poorly or for the wrong reason, and compositions end up too \u2018loose\u2019. However, this criticism certainly can\u2019t be levelled at Sirsendu\u2019s eye-catching shot.<\/p>\n<p>By placing himself so close to the woman on the right, he has captured the dynamism in the lines of the sarees as they are dried.<\/p>\n<p>Our eye shoots straight to the smaller woman on the left, before travelling across to the figures who have been extremely well captured between the two pieces of fabric. A very atmospheric reportage shot.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147318 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Young_APOY_Winner_Amdad_Hossain-601x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Round one winner: Young Photographer of the Year<br \/>\nMuhammad Amdad Hossain Bangladesh<\/h2>\n<p><strong>100 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Canon EOS 5D Mark II, 50mm, 1\/800sec at f\/7.1, ISO 160<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What a great picture! The tonal range is exquisite, with the silhouetted figures and tree in the foreground a deep black, the next line of trees a mid grey and, further back, a tree line of light grey.<\/p>\n<p>The figures are perfectly positioned in the frame and the shot is perfectly timed. Badly timed silhouettes can look a confusing mess without the third dimension to help explain what you\u2019re looking at, but here the limbs of the figures and even the legs of the cow are perfectly separated to aid immediate recognition.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to see how this shot could be improved in any way.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"147319 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Camera_Club_Charles_Ashton-607x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"607\" height=\"400\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>Camera Club Competition: Charles Ashton, UK<\/h2>\n<p><strong>10 points<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Nikon Z 7, 15-30mm at 22mm, 1\/60sec at f\/2.8, ISO 250<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Help your camera club accumulate points when you enter APOY by choosing it from the dropdown menu when you upload your images.
