Open Judging Results
Brief

One of nature’s great spectacles, tricky to shoot well, but rewarding with truly memorable images. When the weather delivers, and the skies are cracking open, the well prepared photographer sets their tripod, frames the shot, and employs long shutter speeds to capture the scene that unfolds.

This Premium Contest is worth 3x the standard points towards your Leaderboard ranking. It’s Expert-judged, but with no Crowd vote. Find out more about ranking points here. Our Experts are some of the world’s finest photographers, who select the best images, and provide valuable feedback to help you improve.
