WINNERS GALLERY Feb 2019

"Landscape ​​" 2019 Theme Winners

From coastal regions, to plains and magnificent mountain ranges the Landscape view can be one of the most awe inspiring and beautiful images we will ever frame up.  Large in scale, lines, imagination and range but filled with so many beautiful details they can also be one of the most challenging to compose.

Stary Night in the Dolomites BY ​Daniel Fleischhacker

Picture
Our First Place Winner was submitted by 
Daniel Fleischhacker ​​​​​ from Rosenheim, 
Bavaria 
My name is Daniel Fleischhacker (30) and I'm a photographer based in Bavaria/Germany.  My passion is to photograph the beauty of landscapes worldwide. I love to travel and I also love to shoot close to my hometown.  Bavaria is a wonderful place in the south of Germany and we have everything a landscape photographer could dream of.  Mountains, waterfalls, rivers, forests and canyons are in my backyard.  Every-time I come back from travelling to various foreign countries I again realize how much beauty I have around me.

Blood Moon Over Temple of Sinawava​ by Peter Hines

Picture
Our Third Place Winner was submitted by 
Peter Hines ​​​from  Salt Lake City, Utah

​
Peter Hines is a Utah fine art photographer based in Salt Lake City.  He worked for nearly 30 years as a mechanical engineer until a 40 foot fall in a rock climbing accident that changed his life.  In the aftermath and following miraculous recovery from this accident he decided to redirect his life from working in an cubical designing widgets to the pursuit of his artistic and photographic dreams harbored since his youth.  He brings a unique blend to his photography of technical understanding/know-how and artistic vision.  He considers himself as much an artist as a photographer and compares his camera to a paintbrush with light as the medium of expression.  His mission is to realize his artistic vision of nature by “celebrating the extraordinary and sublime moment through the art and technique of photography”.

Santa Eufemia By Wojciech ​Kruczynski

Picture
Our  Honorable Mention Winner was submitted by 
Wojciech Kruczynski​​​​ from Piastów, Poland

​
I am an amateur landscape photographer from Poland, also known as Swen Stroop.  My favorite places to take my pictures is Iceland, Scotland and Norway (especially the Hebrides and Lofoten Islands).  I always spend my vacations in these locations, on feet with backpack or on my bicycle, struggling with rain, cold wind and ugly midges. I can't imagine something more beautiful and pleasant than this.
