2nd Place
“Post Storm Prague by digi-nation

Judges Comments:
“This photograph captured my attention right away with the image of the reflection in the puddle. The strong contrast of the white clouds against the black of the buildings draws my eyes right to the center, and the vertical lamp post(reflection and real) draws my attention to the entire composition. An interesting idea.”

“One of the few black and white entries, of a scene that many photographers would have walked right past.”

Prize: 1 copy of Digital Photography Captured Volume 1, kindly donated by KnowledgeTrek.
