This image brings back great memories for me of the Chicken Run film. I used to watch it with my Mum and your image sums it up in one. 'those chickens are up to summat' was often said in the film. When I saw your image it came back to me. The thought of a chicken in its shell counting down its days to get out and then the feet marks as it goes away bringing the point home. I really can only think of one word to sum up the sheer brilliance of your image. CRACKING!
This image is stunning. It is close to my family and I as we lost a young cousin of only 26 in the more recent conflict. The title is so very true. The image is pin sharp, very well composed and the tones and contrast in black and white work very well and are spot on. The amount of detail you have managed to capture is cracking. A very worthy winner. Congratulations.

This is a great depiction of a simple concept. The idea of aviation from propellers to engines may be simple but you have executed it perfectly. The planes you have chosen work to bring the idea out to its full ability. Even the composition you have chosen gives the images more impact. I like the way you have blended the two planes together too. A cracking image. Well done.
