01 THE LADY AND THE MOON BY MARCO TAGLIARINO
Marco’s image ‘The Lady and the Moon’ takes the top spot in this month’s Minimalism photo contest. We loved the simplicity of the black and white conversion, the shapes and the striking silhouette of the dancer against a large white circular backdrop. It’s a brilliant capture that shows Marco’s masterful timing, perfect exposure and eye for a brilliant candid photo. Great job!
Lens Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM
Exposure 1/60 sec, f/3.5, ISO800
02 EARLY MORNING COSMOS BY CHENH HONG
This is a lovely spring flower shot from Chenh who tells us a bit more about how he got the shot: “I took this at a flower exhibition in Taiwan. Each year they plant several acres of cosmos in the farmer’s field. I love to find just one flower standing out from a sea of colour like this one.”
Lens Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM

03 RESISTING THE TIDES OF TIME BY JAY BIRMINGHAM
The remains of the old pier at Swanage are a classic choice for photographer’s looking to get minimal and abstract seascapes. Jay’s done well to put his own spin on it and used Neutral Density filters to achieve a long exposure of 45 seconds, causing an eerie blur effect around the old pier posts.
Lens Canon EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM
Exposure 45 secs, f/16, ISO100
04 DOUGHNUT BY ANASTASY YARMOLOVICH
