and the winner is...


Forgot to add here, I won the Angus Summer Photography competition earlier this month.
300+ entries and the top 12 appear on the Angus 2009 Calendar.
I picked up 1st prize by the skin of my teeth following a heated debate by the judging panel and recieved an £150 voucher to spend at Forfar Photo Centre.

I claimed a bunch of CF cards for the camera and got printed 5 29" panorama prints.

Nice work when you can get it!
The winning image was a colour one but I've never converted it to monochrome so will post that version here later.

An article went out in all the local Angus rags and I've included a pdf link below.

Right click and choose rotate clockwise and zoom in to read the text!

Here's a quick conversion of the winner:
(the colour really made the shot and impressed the judges on this one though)

Yes Chris.
She's now moved on to the subject of me saving for a Canon EOS 1ds as I wasn't overimpressed with the 5d MKII

Looks like I'm up to my neck in it again
