Landscape Photographer of the year - got in the book & expo
Amazed! I got a "Commended" for my shot of a chap on West Wittering beach, and as a result it's in the book and the exhibition.
There's a selection of some shots in the Sunday Times mag today, and more info here. Anyone else here get in?
My pic was this one by the way

Re: Landscape Photographer of the year - got in the book & expo
I know - it was not my first first choice. I submitted 10 and this was the last one I put in. Having seen some of the others that got commendations or category winners you can see the sort of thing they were after though.

Re: Landscape Photographer of the year - got in the book & expo
Top work.
The dog shot won the £10k? Seriously?
The Humber bridge shot destroys that one.

Yep - £10k for the dog shot, though I've got to say I do like it. It has a certain quality to it that I like and I can see why they picked it I guess. I'm not sure how many winners & commended shots there are. I guess one overall winner, and one winner for each of the categories (5 of them??), then a bunch of commended ones like mine. Enough to fill a book I reckon.

Re: Landscape Photographer of the year - got in the book & expo
It's a nice enough shot - not convinced it's a winner though. There are some majestic shots there (love the gardening one as well).

Re: Landscape Photographer of the year - got in the book & expo
Congrats Tobers
You may not be mad on the picture yourself but I love it. It has a timeless quality to it and I love the composition and framing.
Well deserved I reckon.
