Happy to share that my photograph “Fun In The Rain” is a nominee in the Children Of The World category of the 20th annual Black and White Spider Awards.
The 102mp image, made on the Fujifilm GFX100RF was processed using the Fujifilm Acros raw profile in Adobe’s LightRoom Classic, on my Mac Studio using calibrated Eizo CG276 monitors. You can find my review of the GFX100RF here.

Many thanks to the team of international judges for choosing this image, from the thousands of entries, spanning 30 countries.

Photographs were entered from 69 countries and it’s great to have a breadth of my work recognised by the judges, to whom I am thankful.
Three of the images were made using a Leica M10-D and three of the images were made using Lumix cameras (S1R and LX100 mkII). As always, all photographs were made in raw and processed in Adobe’s LightRoom Classic. The monochrome finishing was done in Exposure Software’s X7, using an Apple Mac Pro, with fully calibrated Eizo CG series monitors.

Astonished and overjoyed to share that that eight of my photographs reached the finals of the BW specialist competition, the 4th TZIPAC Zebra Awards.
Seven of the images were shot on Olympus OM-D cameras (E-M1 and E-M5 Mark II) and one of the images (the urban dance image) was shot on a Leica Monochrom.
Whilst non of the images went onto win, having eight photographs get into the finals is pretty special! Huge congratulations to the winners; there was some exceptional photography.
