Timeless. Bollards came from the tall ships pulling up in the docks and you have captured the age of the sailing vessel with the anchor and bollards. Clearly the thirds have worked well for you here. Bollards across the bottom third and the anchor on the right third. Great Picture.

Meet the judge

Truly great. With the railings leading the eye into the picture towards the suble colours ranging across the picture from the deeper blues on the left to the yellow and oranges on the right makes this a really great picture.

Great use of depth of field with the recuring pattern of the railing. The use of the top hand rail pulling the eye across the picture makes this stand out. Simple subject matter but effective in creating a great picture.

Brief

See more contest details

In the streets and in the parks, in fact all around us you will find the humble bollards and railings. Some offer protection, some are decorative and some have a functional use. There is no standard size, shape or colour. This contest allows for a great variety of pictures. It could be a bollard in use at the marina, set in a stunning city scape or railings being used for crowd control at a concert. The only rule is that it has to feature bollards or railings. I'm looking for an inspiring picture with a tight fit to the brief.

This picture has caught my eye as its the first time I have seen the Old Peir in a new light and with it being a local destination it often crops up.. Fitting the brief of Bollards and Railings while capturing an Iconic location in Swanage.
