Thank you to all the photographers that shared their best nature images in the Celebrating Nature Photo Contest Vol 2 with chances to win a Canon 5D MK III and more!
A special thanks to our friend and professional photographer Peter-Paul de Meijer for his collaboration as a guest judge in this photo contest. De Meijer's work was recognized by a number of outdoor magazines for whom he became a frequent contributor. He combines personal work with commercial assignments for various companies in the outdoors industry such as Red Bull, O'Neill and Motion Analysis. De Meijer has been shifting his photographic interests towards travel, adventurous sports and food photography. In 2011 he started an on-going collaboration with 3 star Michelin chef Sergio Herman. His work has been featured in a variety of editorial magazines, such as Traveller's World (Europe), Whitebook (China) and Powder Magazine (USA), amongst others.
Congratulations Grand Jury Winner "Kissing my Frog Prince" by lessysebastian
"There's no photo that suits the contest theme better than this one. This odd encounter makes me laugh everytime I look at it. Composition wise it would have been a little bit stronger if it had a bit more negative space and the depth of field could have been a bit deeper, so that the legs of the frog would separate from the background more. (I'm just nitpicking!) What a great photo! " - Peter Paul De Meijer
Congratulations Runner Up "Sailfish Hunting" by peterallinson
"I love the simplicity and colours in this photo. Sardines are masters in synchronized swimming, which is masterfully captured in this image where they're fleeing from the sailfish. Great shot!"- Peter Paul De Meijer
