On behalf of Andy Stringer I present assignment 33: Shooting Wide
"I’m looking for shots with a wide panoramic aspect ratio between 2.5:1 and 3:1. The subject can be anything you like but the composition must suit a long rectangular frame. It can be either cropped or stitched. It doesn’t necessarily have to be wide angle or wide aperture, just wide."
- Have fun!
- The poll will be opened for 3 days
And the finalists are:
Name: bgood
Motivation: A very pleasing composition for the wide format. I like the way the path winds its way through the foreground, how the temple contrasts with the foliage and how the clouds are shrouding the hillside beyond.
Name: ddt0725
Motivation: A great capture of the intense colour of this sunset, with the patterns in the water providing added interest. The inclusion of the shore in the foreground helps to draw the eye into the picture.
Name: neuroanatomist
Motivation: A fascinating insight into a different culture with interesting features across the width of the frame. Good use of leading lines and reflections in the composition.
Name: bob williams
Motivation: I like the brave use of a slow shutter speed to accentuate the motion of these snow geese. The wide format with the geese flying low overhead works well to emphasise the size of the flock.
Name: btaylor
Motivation: A beautifully composed image of the aurora. I like the low placement of the horizon, leaving space for the vastness of the sky and the wonderful colours of the northern lights.
