Thank you for submitting this image which stood out to me amongst many other wonderful captures in this space. The composition feels perfect in terms of the timing of the people moving within the space as well as in terms of the compositional space given to the floor as well as the ceiling. I appreciate the darker tones here too. Congratulations on your top ten position.
Thank you for submitting this image which I find to be a story-rich capture of a well loved space. I'm drawn to linger on the image and look at the individual people and groups who all together become a vibrant and interesting thing to look at within a space made for viewing other things. Congratulations on your top ten position.
Thank you for submitting this image which made me want to stop and look in more detail right away. I love the note that you captured this image using the same camera as the one used in the art on the wall. I love the vibrant absurdity in this frame; the wonky balance, unexpected primary colours, mirroring of the stance taken while looking, and the shoe protectors. There are many layers of reference here which always makes for a deeper read. Congratulations on your top ten position.
Thank you for submitting this image which I feel is a beautiful capture of a simple space. The light treatment is very pleasing, especially with the colour palette. I love the juxtaposition of human and sculptured subjects, especially the timing of the hands of the figures at the window. Congratulations on third position.
Thank you for submitting this image which for me stands out in many ways. I love the creative choice to capture the audience in light which matches the painting, having found a natural composition of a crowd which itself somewhat matches. I appreciate the point of view, of standing back to observe the human experience in a popular art space, as some people photograph or look at a painting while others move past or look elsewhere, all the while being watched by a single security guard. Congratulations on first place!

The world’s exhibition spaces range from vast national museums to the tiniest celebrations of our cultural heritage. Collections of art, culture, science, archaeology, design, the natural world, and many other things are often housed within eye-catching architectural creations, both old and new. And inside those walls they offer up a plethora of visitors, come to educate and entertain themselves, and mingle with other interested folk. Entries can be both exterior or interior views of museums and galleries, and with or without people, it’s your choice.
Thank you for submitting this image which stood out for me as an original capture in a popular space. I love the exposure and toning which brings out the bold red subtly. The composition allows me a second to connect the text with the figure, and appreciate the point of view. Congratulations on highly commended.
Thank you for submitting this image which I find to be a particularly beautiful capture of a scene rich in interesting architecture. The toning is subtle yet effective, highlighting shape and form. I particularly love the timing and exposure of the human element in the frame. Congratulations on highly commended.
Thank you for submitting this image which stood out to me as a vibrant and artful capture. I appreciate how church-like the building looks with this composition and exposure. The shutter speed gives a particularly pleasing and painterly like motion blur, while the still figures are well captured. The vibrancy of the red coat gives a pop of drama to the frame. Congratulations on your top ten position.
Thank you for submitting this image which made me smile. I love the concept of focusing on the detailed materiality of a work of art as it literally reflects the modern world around it. The composition around the eye is wonderful. I appreciate the playfulness of the point of view. Congratulations on high commended.
