Congrats Phil... First and Third... Now, dont let it go to your head!

amateur photographers talk gear, professional photographers talk composition but great photographers talk about light

Thats a really good pic, takes some commitment for that type of shower.

Any insiders on how you went about it ?

And

Woohoo I got second, thanks to everyone for voting and thanks to CFP for the opportunity to submit my work.
I hope this is a good omen as I have some B&W portfolio photos submited to magazines. fingers crossed.

Cheers guys

Thanks guys and to Hoffy and Brendo for putting up and organising prizes and for this forum.
There's some really great images being put up here.
I always enjoy logging on after a weekend to see who's done what and where.
Don't underestimate the wealth of talent that lurks around on this forum.
There was some really good shots put up at the outset and it was hard to choose the top 5.
I was a bit chuffed to say the least to have both my pics make the final cut.
I'm kind of surprised that the rally pic got me on the top step of the podium.
I thought the bike shot would have done that.
I guess it shows that a shot that was thought out beats an opportunistic shot when peers are looking at and voting on images.
Congrats to Smithers for taking silver and to Kingwheatie and Angry for being there at the end.
Both those pics were cracker shots.
Thanks to those who helped me get the top spot.
I'd also like to thank my ....ahh I'll stop there. It's not the Academy awards.

A big congrats to Phil and Smithers....
Phil - your second image got a flurry of votes towards the end pipping Angry out for Bronze.
A worthy image, and Smithers , an excellent shot that i would be proud of - hope to see more from you here.

Umm..yeah. That was kind of funny to watch the way the voting went.
The bike shot was sitting there for so long with a big fat 0 next to it - a bit like a Pakistani batsman.
But when it got out of the blocks, it came home with a wet sail.
Regards,
Phil
