Honorable Mention in Silhouette | Alternative Planes Of Existence
Alternative Planes Of Existence. Walkers by, exist in an entirely different plane, often unknown to them as they continue with their journeys. Canary Wharf, London, United Kingdom.

Honorable Mention in Advertising | Baetylus
The groundbreaking Baetylus from Den’s Pens. It’s by far one of the most inventive, unique, creative and remarkable fountain pen designs. Custom made in black ebonite, with some facets polished and others in matte. Each Baetylus is even more unique, as each is entirely shaped by hand. The shape and feel, give it an organic presence, as if born from the earth. Photo: Edmond Terakopian. Lumix S1R and Sigma 105mm f2.8 Macro Art DG DN.
Nominee in People | Cooling Off At The Pub
The month of July would reach a new UK high of 40.3C being recorded at Coningsby in Lincolnshire on 19 July 2022. Scientists summise that the record breaking summer is a true sign of the changing climate. The Met Office states that “virtually impossible” without human-induced climate change. Meanwhile in London, the summer is enjoyed with joy by locals and visitors, as the change in climate causes London to have a hot summer. Cooling drinks after work at a pub in Shoreditch, London, UK.

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.
I do not condone nor can I be held responsible for reader comments published on this blog; they are the sole responsibility of the reader making the comment.
