Two Photo Contest Winners
Thank you to all the photographers that shared their best photos showing two similar subjects in the Two Photo Contest with chances to win a Fire Tablet and more!
A special thanks to our friend and professional photographer Jason Matias for his collaboration as a guest judge in this photo contest. Matias is an internationally published photographer who sells his fine art landscapes to clients and collectors around the world. Through mindfulness and introspection he has narrowed his creative expression to an idea he calls “Comfortable Isolation.” He finds inspiration from the great painters of the Renaissance, Hudson Valley, and American Southwest movements and his goal is to blur the lines between photography and art.. His favorite lesson when leading workshops is helping photographers find their voice.
"Kutsey did a fantastic job perfecting this capture. The photographer was able to isolate the subjects with color, and composition. My keeps bouncing between the red umbrellas and the dome of the pagoda in the background and does not escape the frame. Well done. " - Jason Matias
"I love the way en environment and the light keep my eye traveling in this photograph. Both surfers are captured in a swath of light and that makes them stand out in the composition. Additionally, the white of the boards and the sea foam in the top third create a triangle that is easy for my eyes to follow. Great job on the color and the composition here. " - Jason Matias
"I love the way the environment plays a significant part in the excellence of this image. The birds are framed in the foreground and aft by bokeh. Both are positioned in thirds, adding to the composition and further keeping my eyes in the frame. Nice capture. " - Jason Matias
