Evening All, I hope you are well.

Thank you all for your input, a great selection and so many different interpretations!

Never judged before, so i will take the lead from the judges I have seen at the club I.e. just my opinion, but hopefully constructive.

Sue. A real sense of movement and action, only slight comment would be composition, more distance between the wave and background building.

John. Love the colours and composition. Slightly slower shutter speed would have given a sense of movement.

Gordon. Reminds me of an Ansel Adams! If only the grass was blowing the same way as the tree, it would have been my top pick.

Mel. Would have loved to see what was at the end of those wires!

Daz. Love the power in the wave just slightly distracting composition with the cars.

Sue. Great shot. Would have liked to see more of the sail.

Overall a great selection and I really enjoyed spending time studying them, but there can only be one..... so well done....Sue!

That's great Andrew, many thanks for the appraisal!

You've listed Sue twice and the last pic is by Anne, so just to make sure, you did mean Sue (the first image) as the winner, or was it Anne and you just typed the wrong name (the last image). If you can clarify that we can get the next competition up and running!
Best regards
