Julie Cowdy - Psalms of David
This image refers back to a genre of still life, using symbolism, as painted by the Old Masters. The objects suggest time and age, with the snuffed out candle and the spectacles. I created the composition then added a background layer using a photo of textured stonework. I try to achieve an artistic creativity in my photography.
Sharon Marwood - Lily Burst
This image is of a day lily, created by zooming in or out as the shot is taken.
Harry Kingman - Here’s Penguins Galore
This is a composite of several photographs of Gentoo Penguins taken on Greenwich Island in Antarctica. I was aiming to create the impression of a group of penguins slaloming down a slope.
Lynn Wraith - Full Flow
After lots of rain, a local river was very full, bringing peat down from the moors. The colours in the water were striking and I decided to take the image with a technique called ‘Intentional Camera Movement”.
John Clifton - Passion Door
You don’t always need an expensive camera to create great photographs. Due to the low light and high density of visitors to the Segrada Familia in Barcelona, I was unable to use my trusted DSLR. Instead I turned to the camera on my mobile phone to create this image of the Passion Door.
Mike Ward - The Cod & Lobster
This is an unusual photographic image of The Cod & Lobster at Staithes. The photograph was shot from a high vantage point on the cliff top in the afternoon. It was later digitally enhanced in Photoshop to make the photograph look as though it was taken in the evening.
