Beautiful Lighting in Nature

A beautiful shot of ice at sunrise; the colours are lovely; the dominant blues create a cold atmosphere. The light on the ice is simply stunning. Congratulations on a wonderful photograph.

This photograph goes to show that a great wildlife photograph does not necessarily need to be close-up with lots of detail of the subject. Instead, you have zoomed out, creating a beautiful and magical atmosphere. The use of contrasting blue and orange/yellow hues help to make this image visually stunning. Thank you for entering my contest, and congratulations!

This is a beautiful silhouette of a deer; it truly illustrates the beauty of natural light. However, I have noticed that there is quite a bit of noise in this image and, having looked at your camera settings, I would maybe suggest lowering your shutter speed and, in turn, your ISO as your ISO has been pushed to the limit, causing a significant amount of noise.. Nonetheless, a beautiful photograph to be proud of. Thank you for entering!

This is a stunning shot if a sleeping lamb; the soft light on the lamb's face and the bokeh in the background make for an aesthetically pleasing shot. This is a lovely, gentle photograph of a gentle animal. Thank you for entering my contest.

I normally prefer wildlife and macro photography over all other mediums, so I wasn't expecting a landscape shot to be my favourite out of all the entries. It takes a really impressive landscape to resonate with me; and this one is incredible. The colours are just stunning; the blues and oranges contrast beautifully with each other. The detail in the ice in the foreground is exquisite, and the shot has beautiful depth. This is a truly stunning image, and I can find no faults. Thank you for entering my contest, and congratulations on a well-deserved first place.

A beautiful, minimalistic image. The light catching on the snow crates beautiful depth, and the composition is spot-on, with the lines of light acting as leading lines towards the tree. Simply stunning. Thank you for entering my competition, and congratulations!

This is a beautiful image; damselflies are very hard to photograph, but you have done so perfectly. The shallow depth of field really helps to bring out the subject and the bokeh creates a magical atmosphere. The only fault I can find in this image is that the watermark is quite large and distracting, and takes away from the overall effect of the photograph. Despite that, a breathtaking shot and one to be very proud of.

Wow. What a beautiful portrait of this mother and her cub. Anyone who says that animals cannot show emotion should look at this photograph. The blue hues in the background contrast with the dappled gold light. Just stunning. Thank you for entering, and congratulations.

I really love this image; the colours and the composition are simply beautiful. However, there seems to be a bight vignette around the image; I'm not sure if this was added in post-production? Nonetheless, a great image to be proud of.

This is a great image with so much character and expression. The composition is great and the soft foreground and background do well to draw the viewer's eye to the subjects. However, the highlights seem to be quite bright; I might suggest reducing them a little. That said, a wonderful photograph. Thank you for entering my contest, and congratulations!

There weren't many pet photos entered into the contest, but this one is really impressive. The action is perfectly frozen and the colours are stunning. You have really captured a moment here, congratulations.
