Absolutely stunning! This night picture of the Crni Kal Viaduct in Slovenia is extraordinary, captured during unique weather conditions with thermal inversion placing fog beneath the highway bridge. The long exposure beautifully highlights the shining road due to passing cars. The bridge's shape creates a compelling leading line, drawing attention. Incredible composition, colors, timing, and photo settings contribute to an outstanding first-place image. Congratulations!

A captivating low-key black and white photograph! The high-contrast lighting beautifully captures a grey heron perched in a tree with stunning side lighting against a naturally dark, forested mountain slope background. This shot, taken from a boat in a mountainous wetland area, exhibits remarkable composition and contrasts. Truly amazing!

**This contest is open to photographers ranked between 1 and 250 in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** A minimalistic approach to life is growing in popularity as our busy, technology-focussed and consumerist existences leave us feeling increasingly overwhelmed. Defined by sparseness and simplicity, the minimalist approach to photography is also refreshing, and sees us decluttering our images. With a stronger focus on the forms within the image, negative space, and colour, deciding what to leave out is almost as important as deciding what to leave in. Minimalism is an approach, not a particular subject, so all genres of images are welcome.
