This photograph is stunning! The colours are incredible. I love the use of the warm-coloured houses against the green of the trees around the village. This is definitely a place I would love to visit. Congratulations on a place in my top ten, and thank you for entering!

This is a photograph that really allows someone to just sit back and enjoy the beauty of it. You have done a great job capturing this landscape; the lighting and composition are beautiful. I love the contrast of the smooth, glassy river in the foreground and the jagged, hazy mountains in the background. I also love the little villages hidden among the hills. Congratulations on a beautiful landscape from above - thank you for entering!

The perspective in this shot is magical. A great composition; looking down at the tall buildings, the shapes of the roads create nice leading lines throughout the image. The lighting is beautiful. Congratulations on a beautiful image, and well done for earning a place in my top ten!

What a beautiful photograph. You have chosen the perfect time to take this shot; the evening light and long shadows really enhance the beauty. I love the fact that the green on the rock corresponds with the blue-green colour of the sea, and I also love the trail of footprints coming from behind the person. Thank you so much for entering, and congratulations on a place in my top ten.

This was a very simplistic - yet beautiful - interpretation of the brief. You have really managed to capture the smoothness of the blue water, almost making it look like sheet of glass. The use of blue and green as dominant colours has, in my opinion, really enhanced the shot. Well done for a great photograph, and thank you for entering my competition!
