Votes

First Place ( 3 points): Joe Lorenzini, "Horse and Rider."
I liked this image because it showed "co-operative" strength and concentration.

Second Place (2 points): Michael McShuster, "A powerful engine"
Beautifully executed example of "raw strength."

Third Place (1 point): Lin, "Stopping the Train."
Very creative. Shows the strength of imagination and the powers of the mind.

Here`s the vote from Bavaria!

Wow, what outstanding submissions! Everyone approached the topic from a different angle.


So here's my personal vote:

1st place: 3 points: Justin (TKO) "BeijingPanning"
The "fragile" Bike in the rain against all the Cars. It kind of touched me, Great panning.

2nd place: 2 points: Lin (Linm) "Stopping the Train"
Great teamwork Idea, very well captured!

3rd place: 1 point: Ken Go (KENGO) "Manmade Strengthen by Nature"
Nature against, and at the same time completing the purpose of something man-made!
I think we used the same Glass (50 f1.8?)

Every capture was a great interpretation of the topic, but the special price for "creative-thinking" goes to: Greg for "Strength of natural Cotton"! :wink:

2nd place: Total wreck by NB23

3rd place: Stopping the train by Lin
