For several years I’ve been subscribing to Practical Photographer, a UK photography magazine. They do a Photographer of the Year competition every year, and in 2009 my tiger (yeah, that one 😉 ) was runner-up in round 7 (the Natural World) of the competition. This year I entered one of my favorite portraits into the portrait round (round 2) of the competition.
D700, ISO400, 1/125 sec @ f/2, Nikkor 50mm
It was shortlisted out of about 1,500 entries. In the end it didn’t win, but I was already very happy it got this far (how could it not, anyway? She’s such a lovely, pretty girl! 🙂 ).
It was published in the August 2011 issue of Practical Photography.
The opinions of the judges can be viewed in the online video. I’m in around 2:27.
