Focal Press Competition Winners Announced
Focal Press Press Release
WINNERS OF THE FOCAL PRESS KEEPING IT UNREAL COMPETITION
Earlier on this year Focal Press ran a student digital imaging competition. Students were invited to submit up to 3 seamless 2D images created using Photoshop and other software. The content had to be an everyday setting that has been digitally manipulated to offer an unexpected vision, one that only digital software could create.
From retro to contemporary to futuristic, winning images had to be grounded in the familiar but celebrate how things might change…a spectacle that can stun viewers with its contrasts and audacity.
The winners with judges comments can be viewed here.
Many thanks to our kind and generous sponsors iStockphoto, Pure360, Olympus and the British Journal of Photography who donated prizes for the winners.

Pretty weird stuff. The winning photo was not the most surreal, but it was the most normal, everyday looking, until you take a closer look, which is what the judges were looking for.
