Category: Outdoor Photographer: Willem Lombard Photo: "Dune" I love how you have to really look at this image to see what is sand dune and what is sky. The black fence adds such great contrast and pulls us into the image wonderfully from the corner. Great shapes, tones and composition. Thank you for sharing your image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Romeo Ninov Photo: "Fallen Shapes" The patterns made by the water in this are so interesting and the reflections add a whole other layer of shapes to them as well in this image. I love the rich, bright green and blue which balances out the black and white in the middle. It reminds me of a very cool abstract flag. A very well seen moment.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Ivan Rigamonti Photo: "Sylt" I love this little guy. Whew! So tired out from cycling he just couldn’t make it any further. His red coat and green helmet really make him pop against the gray/green sky and overall muted colors of the scene. The brick inlays on either side also reflect the overall color palette of the image and lead us into the scene. I also like that the poles on either side of the beach chairs keep us within the image and make us take a look around. Thank you for sharing your image with … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Ivan Rigamonti

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Bibek Singh Photo: "Hide and Seek" A perfect example of being patient or just good timing. Either way, it works brilliantly in this shot. Waiting for just the right person, with just the right umbrella to walk across the street in the fog has paid off here. The yellow taxis help to give us a sense of location and also showcase the weather with the reflections in the wet pavement. The pop of color adds some life to this as well. Thank you for sharing with our group. Originally shared with the Photofocus … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Bibek Singh

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Jeff Clouet Photo: "Urban Reflection" This shot makes me so happy. The building itself is amazing but to capture the colors and lines in the reflection of the windows and how it’s been composed really make this an outstanding image. Even the bit of shadow on the left adds a hint of mystery to this. Thank you for sharing with our group.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Mark Marshall Photo: "The Dawn of Spring" Oh so moody. I love how ghostly the city of Chicago appears here. It’s as if the city is trying to hide in the fog, not quite ready for spring yet, still a little sleepy from winter. The tones chosen for this edit really add to the overall feeling this evokes. I can picture this as the opening scene in a mystery or crime type film.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Allan Jones Photographer Photo: "Baby Spiders" Maybe I should have warned you all first on this one. Baby spiders — eww, right? This image intrigued me, I came back to it several times as I was looking through submissions for Photographer of the Day. Why did I come back to it? At first glance, you can’t tell what it is. It’s an interesting image, the color and the softness pulled me in at first. Then I wanted to zoom in to see what that wirelike white stuff was, and then I got to the eww part. It’s something I … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Allan Jones Photographer

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Renato Greco Photo: "Macaone" I love the rich, fall tones of this and how the butterfly colors pull from the background. Beautifully lit by the sun and great depth of field to make the subject pop in this. Thank you for sharing this with us, Renato.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Davide Gabinol Photo: "Un piede nella natura" This image stopped me in my tracks. It grabbed my inner child and took me right back to laying in the grass in the summer. I can feel the warmth of the sun and smell the fresh summer air just by looking at this shot. It's a simple shot, but the emotion, warmth and sense of place is just pouring from it, well done. Thank you for sharing your image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Allan Jones Photographer Photo: "Pelican" What timing! Captured at just the right moment with not only the fish in the air but the wings spread and the push through the water are all spot on. I love the details in the feathers and also in the wave of water. What a great moment. Thank you Allan for sharing this wonderful image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Phil Campbell Photo: "Frosty Bur" What a fantastic 3-dimensional image. The frost just pops on this plant and the soft blue background is the perfect wintery setting. Just a beautiful image. Thank you for sharing this with us, Phil.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Stefano Cerchiaro Photo: "Minimal" I love the simplicity of this, the tones, the space left around the tree within the image and the contrast. A gorgeous example of using a long exposure to smooth out the water in just the right amount. Thank you Stefano for sharing your image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: iLOVEnature Photography Photo: "Winter Sunset Silhouettes Nature's Inspiration" Such beautiful details in this foxtail at sunset. It's really amazing to see the shapes within the stalk. I also love the gradation of warm to cool from corner to corner in this. A wonderful reminder to pay attention to the smaller picture, it's not always about the epic sunset. Thank you iLOVEnature Photography for sharing your image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Andre vd Meulen Photo: "Line to Infinity" I love the mystery in this. Where do those trees disappear to? Some mystical land. Beautifully composed with soft tones to lead us into the image and create a sense of wonder. Thank you Andre for sharing your image with us.

Category: Outdoor Photographer: Hani Bader Photo: "Underwater" The first thing that made me stop and look at this image was the color. The bright blue with the red/orange plant just pop. Secondly, the shape of the plant makes me feel and see the motion of the water moving it around and waving toward the divers. The silhouettes of the divers add just a little bit more interest and make this image something different. It would be beautiful without as well but the divers give the whole image context. Thank you Hani for sharing your image with … [Read more...] about Photographer of the Day: Hani Bader
