The competition, indeed all the photo competitions we have run in the Community, have been open to users of all levels and all manufacturers cameras. In that respect it is the same as the Sony World Photography Awards, which can (and is) won with all sorts of cameras and lenses. Obviously we would love there to be more Sony entries and winners, but not at the expense of diversity and inclusiveness. It is a photo competition after all, not a camera competition.
b) The winner is selected by public votes. (not applicable in this competition) The winner is not selected by public votes. We leave voting turned on so people can give their appreciation. It has not say on the final winner. This is not a popularity contest after all.
it presents itself as a popularity contest when you have the kudos switched on and can give people the impression of it helping in some way to the deciding factor.and also it states only one vote per person so if it doesnt count the community should be able to vote for more than one picture that they like.
also having checked out your judges pictures maybe contributors should have mainly uploaded insect or bug pictures,
also how is the following going to be achieved -
Three winners per participating country will each win a SWPA photography book and a year's free subscription to the World Photography Organisation.
So from what I understand now each winner of a competition will be a judge for the next competition. I don't want to be rude but it would a big offense for the others to be judged by these kind of winners ... I have a questions though . If the judge would be the friend of a competitor and he would choose his friend as the winner ,no matter the picture is good or not, how could Sony assure us the competitors that the decision is FAIR !? therefore I would suggest to have always at least 2 judges and the reasons for the decision should be more solid! The reasons that Krasimir Maratov choose the winner are very very questionable! Is a pity that such a nice Prize will end up sold and never to be used by a proper user that would really value it, as many gifted competitors would've done it ...
For those inquiring about the EXIF Data.. the reason why it is via comment is because i had cropped the photo using Gimp, this software compresses photos and thus takes away EXIF Data linked to the photograph.
To the rest who are arguing that this photo is bad... Everyone has different views on photography, if this is not yours, then dont bother commenting.
Was braucht ein gutes Naturphoto? Mindestens eine Kamera mit Kleinbild, äh sorry VOLLFormat Sensor, und ein Objektiv mit mindestens 300mm Brennweite, das am besten noch 2,8 Anfangsblende hat, auch wenn dann das Photo mit 8 geschossen wird. Dazu muss die Umgebungstemperatur entweder unter dem Gefrierpunkt oder über 30°C sein oder bei Temperaturen im Normalbereich extreme Luftfeuchtigkeit oder sonstige wittrige Umstände vorherrschen. Natürlich ist ein Tarnzelt Pflicht oder zumindest muss der Photograph dann bis zur Hüfte im Wasser stehen.
Bei Macros muss jede Facette des Auges scharf sein, nur dumm dass so eine schleimige Schnecke keine Facettenaugen hat und Schleim nie so richtig scharf wird.
Gratulation zoezwolf
vielleicht sehen wir uns in London
What makes a good nature photo? At least a camera with KB screen, uh sorry full-frame sensor and a lens with at least 300mm focal length, the best has yet 2.8 maximum aperture, even if the photo is then shot with 8. For this, if the ambient temperature be within a normal temperature range it must have prevail extreme humidity or other witt engined circumstances either below freezing or above 30 ° C . Of course, a camouflage tent is mandatory or at least the photographer must then stand in water up to his waist.
In Macros every facet of the eye must be sharp, just stupid that such a slimy snail has no compound eyes and mucus is never really sharp. Congratulations zoezwolf maybe we'll meet in London
Viele Grüße aus dem wunderschönen Frankenland mit seinen Farben Rot undWeiß sendet GF
Ein Glückwunsch geht an den Gewinner, hier zeozwolf!
Natürlich kann man sich immer über die Auswahl des Gewinners streiten, wobei man allerdings auch die subjektive Sicht von Krasimir Matarov berücksichtigen und akzeptieren sollte.
Beste Grüße,

Inrelationtome, having regard to theoutcomeofthiscompetition, I will not sendmorephotos, orthenitwill bepicturesthathavenoconnectionwiththesubject. ButIcongratulatetheNikonbrand, whichhasmanagedtoconvinceme: mynextcamerawill beaNikon.
Ich mache nun schon seit Jahren Makro Fotografie und bin überrascht, dass unter vielen Gesichtspunkten dieses Fotos und dessen Bearbeitung hier so einen Hype bei den Usern und der Jury ausgelöst hat.
In anderen Foren würde dieses Foto in Bezug auf eingefangene TWA´s, zu starke Sättigung und vielen störenden Flächen auf jeden Fall kein Siegerfoto sein. Es ist bilderzählend und nicht mehr. Es ist bildtechnisch einfach schlecht und seine Platzierung nicht wert!
