Judge’s Comment: A beautifully coloured, sharp and well exposed portfolio that leapt out at me. This photographer obviously pays great attention to detail and composition. A clear winner, congratulations.
Second Place – Janet O’Brien

Judge’s Comment: This portfolio showed me a range of skills across wide angle and macro genres as well as good control of lighting in different situations. Well done.
