Bald Eagle - W Hiddleston
1st Place
Beautiful shot of the eagle set off with the black background, sharp and lots of detail in the feathers.

Away from it All - P Learmont
Lovely sky and a good idea with the horses, the picture is a bit flat needs contrast to bring out the colours.
A stich in time - W Hiddleston
An interesting portrait, you need some light on the stitching hand and his eye. The white of the sleeve is burnt out.
Camden street scene - W Hiddleston
Good colouring in the murals. The whites are a bit bright, waiting until the two people were finished and asking the man to sit on the step would bring him out of the mass. Not quite sharp.
Chip lets hide fae Dale - M Stewart
This image has captured the three faces well, the background is a little distracting. Crop top and bottom and the left to the ear and the faces look much stronger.
Cheeky Chappy - A McNay
A brave closeup portrait catchlight in the eye and detail in the beard. Clone out the bright spots in the glasses. The image is not sharp, lightening the image and adding a little contrast will help sharpen him up.
Derelict School House - J Harkness
2nd Place
A good lead into the image along the road and around the corner with detail in the snow.

Don't drink and dive - B Brown
Competent image with good colouring, really you need the legs in the people, and it lacks something to rest the eye on.
Flying High - B Gillespie
Well captured action lots of detail in the bike pity the face is not sharp, crop to a square to isolate the action as the trees on the left detract from the image.
Fiery Rods - E Laidlaw
The red is striking which separates this plant from the undergrowth. It is not strong enough to hold my attention though.
Foiled Light - A McNay
An interesting set up, capturing the colours in the foil. The black at the top is distracting and I would like to have seen the whole bulb in focus.
