This is so good! I love the clear and sharp reflection in the window as well as the fact that it was one of the few shots in the contest to show us a railway station from inside the train looking out. Congratulations on winning first place.

This is a beautiful long-exposure shot with stunningly crisp lines, a well-balanced composition, and interesting colours. Nothing feels overdone – a 15-second exposure seems to have been just right. The pink and purple tones in the sky are particularly cool. Well done on second place!

I really liked this dreamlike shot with various sharper figures dotted around the scene as opposed to just one sharp subject in a typical composititon. Actually I'm suprised about how much blur you got from that particular shutter speed – tweaking the contrast has enhanced the effect and seems like a good move. Well done on third place!
