A huge thank you to everyone for submitting their entries to our Portrait photography competition.
All the tutors involved in judging asked me to say that this time in particular – it was very very hard to pick a winner.
Most of the pictures in the runners-up section had at least one or two votes, so please keep up what you are doing! You are doing great! And if you did not win this time, you should still be very proud of yourself, and definitely submit your pics for more competitions.
We’ve received a lot of good entries, and I am sorry for not listing all the pictures. But otherwise, that page would have been very very long and would take ages to load.
Ok, without further ado, the winning shot was awarded to Chris Slack, congratulations!!!
Title: “Fred – Craftsman”. Camera and setting: Nikon D3100, exposure: 1/125 sec, f13, ISO 200, lens 18-135mm – focal length used: 40mm
