p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · The Alt and Mirrorless Monthly Competition #100


Pretty amazing isn't it ... I'm sure Jordan (JMan13) probably didn't expect this competition to be still going over 8 years since its inception and hitting the landmark 100. Anyway many thanks to Jordan for its creation and to the many entrants and superb photographs posted along the way.

I was trying to think of something special to mark this event however it would likely detract from the format that has proven so successful so ...

Please post your best shot *taken in September, 2020* also please remember to vote for your top three from competition #99 (August 2020 - We encourage voting EVEN IF YOU DO NOT SUBMIT AN ENTRY ... here:

https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1662046

To anyone reading this who maybe doesn't have an entry for this month, taken in September 2020, please just take 2 minutes of your time to cast your vote for the August entries, anyone can do so, even if you not submitting an entry !

Results:
A straight two horse race to the line between two of our top posters, Dave Behrens and Roberta (Birdied) had Dave edging it for his 9th win out of the 98 tallied so far. That moves him alone into 2nd place on the all time winners list ! Third place went to yours truly. Congratulations to Dave and Roberta for two wonderful entries !

1st Place: dbehrens (29 Points):




2nd Place: Birdied (21 Points)




3rd Place: Frogfish (11 Points)

Untitled by Frederik0711 Photography, on Flickr[frame/]

Camera body: Sony α7R IV
Lens: Voigtländer 21mm f/1.4 Nokton Aspherical
Aperture: f/5.6


Short note on PP: Raise of shadows, decrease of highlights to balance the exposure properly and slight adjustments of contrast, blacks and whites.


Top vote (3p) + reason: johnahill - The impact of the full spectrum is very visible and creates a very unique image that one simply can't capture with the average camera. Really like the leading lines of the path and the many curved trees. Great exposure.

Runner-up vote (2p): Bobu - Fantastic extremely wide image with a logical composition. I like how it starts from the bottom left corner and leads up to the center of the image and up to the skies. Nice vibrant but natural colours and perfect exposure.

Last vote (1p): tsdevine - Really like the dramatic perspective from a worm's eye view, and the different depths of stone leading up to the house, and also the clouds leading to the house. Great but neutral colours and great exposure.

Do I just like the posts to vote (just did)? Sorry for my slow responses, there's a certain colddown.


In the #100 thread you vote for the images of the #99 thread. So you just have to copy your original voting in the #99 thread in this thread and everything is fine.

Congrats on #100! Just a bit of history, though: I did not start the competition. It was started by briantho. He ran the competition until #35, when I took over. I then ran it from #35 to #78, when Frogfish kindly took over the administration (and has done a wonderful job!) Here's to 100 more!

5 days to go - time to put that entry in !

Please note that I will be in quarantine in Shanghai for a couple of weeks (hopefully we return to China this coming weekend) and although WiFi is expected (at the quarantine hotel) it is not confirmed.

Therefore John H. has agreed to take over for me, not just for the next set of results/competition however but also going forward. Enjoyable as it's been I've done my stint (about 18 months I think)? Good luck John !
