A big range of subjects this week - from cheating poker players to free-falling brides! Thanks again to everyone who took the time to email us their entry. You make this an exciting competition to judge each week!

Thomas WzorekFirstly we'd like to commend this entry from Thomas Wzorek. A really intriguing and sweet image. The reflection in the window giving the viewer an insight into what those little teddies are looking at. But who are the owners of these bears? Nice shot Thomas and thanks for the entry - we'd like to send you an complimentary voucher for a print this week as it made us smile ;) You can see more of Tom's portfolio here.

And this week's winning entry is an image by Dominic Burdon. A beautiful image taken at Bagan, Myanmar. A really enchanting shot with an unusual graphic effect of layered landscapes. 

Dominic BurdonWe are still waiting for a larger file to print from so we can photograph and show you what it looks like on one of our papers. We will update this post as soon as this is done. Well done Dominic and thanks for participating. You can view the other commended entries here.

Dreamt I was walking on Earth

We're delighted to showcase some prints we have done for Yiannis Roussakis for his exhibition in Greece opening on the 17th May entitled - Dreamt I was walking on earth.

We loved collaborating with Yiannis on this project and were delighted with the prints. Some really breathtaking photography here with rich colours and moody compositions. If you're in Greece in May then we'd highly recommend you check out his exhibition.

win a free giclee - week 4 results

A thousand thanks to everyone who entered week 4 of the competition. Again we had to hold out on this one a little bit until we had a few more entries but I'm sure as the competition gains popularity we'll be able to judge on a more regular weekly basis.

Firstly here is one of the highly commended entries by Richard Hurst:

Richard HurstA magnificent effort and an image that would calm me down after a hard day at the office. You can see more of Richards work on his website.

The winning entry is from Diogo Miguel Juiz Ferreira (what a lovely name!):

Diogo Miguel Juiz FerreiraWe love macro shots; and what really stood out to us is the planet like collection of water in the center of the leaf. The reflections and detail are really intriguing and the shadows on the edges of the image lead you into the center - super composition.

Here is Diogo's description of the image:

This photo was taken in plain winter after a rain shower and the moisture of the weather created droplets in several plants in the morning. This allowed me to catch this droplets floating in the plants. This particular photo had the perfect lightning conditions to photograph, letting me capture a major droplet in the center surrounded by all the other droplets converging also to the center.

Here are some photos of the print that we'll be sending Diogo printed on Illford Pearl paper:
