Minimalist Landscapes

I love this image so simple, so well captured. The s bend of the road just leads you through the image. It has bags of atmosphere and the image just captures the coldness of the scene on what looks like to be in the middle of winter.

These sculptures on Crosby beach in Merseyside by Sir Antony Gormley are just fabulous. I had a few images of these sculptures and this one was by far the best. I just love how the long exposure has calmed the sea into a mist like effect and the weathered sculpture just pops out in the image. VERY WELL DONE INDEED!

Firstly, I wish to thank everyone on entering my minimalism (landscape) contest. The images have been excellent and it has been really hard to reach my final top ten. But my first place has awarded to this striking composition with the brave position of the pebble right on the bottom third of the image but placed in the middle. Then your eyes are just led into the frame and the striking colours of the beach and sea.

A perfect image for this competition. The leading lines just take you through the image to the isolation of the tree in the field. Well captured the scene just looks like it is in the middle of a snow storm. Super image well done.
