Oops by Martin Smith
Our Second Place Winner was submitted by
Martin Smith from Bulgaria
Born in the U.K. in 1952, I am a semi retired amateur Photographer. I retired to a small village called Stambolovo located in South Bulgaria in 2012 where I now live with my Bulgarian wife, Aneta and Poppy the dog. I spend most of my time passionately renovating the 80-year-old house where we live and what spare time I get is spent on the other passion in my life, photography. I love to take photographs in any and all situations but my main area of interest is the innovative use of every day objects to create thought provoking photographic images.

He likes to feed his creativity by exploring and discovering unconventional environments, spaces and cultures, and presents them through his own raw, personal and unique interpretations.
