Winner of Doug Chinnery’s “Best Photo of 2009″ Competition
One of my favorite images, Patterns of Nature, has one another competition (it’s first win was the sweepstakes prize at the 2009 Weber County Fair). It was chosen as the 1st place winner of Doug Chinnery’s “Best Photo of 2009″ Competition. I was honored to be chosen from among a great group of competitors. Here’s what Doug said about the image: “This image really moved us. It stood out as very different from most images entered by its focus on an intimate landscape. We loved the beautiful colours and strong use of the vertical white trunks of the Silver Birches contrasted against the fresh green of the foliage in the undergrowth, made perfect by the Dandelion heads breaking up the spread of green. This image was made with a keen eye for detail, great exposure control and compositional skills – an image to be proud of. I would love to see a large version of the image.“
