February 2014 competition

Capture the world in a whole new light

Our February 2014 competition was to supply a photo which you felt captured the world in a whole new light. This could have been a photo which showed dramatic use of light and dark, or one which had unusual lighting. The brief was open to your creativity, but we were looking for images where you paid particular attention to the lighting in the photo.

  • 1st prize: Brendan Diver

We chose this image because Brendan thought creatively about his subject, using a burning rope to create the wall of flame. This is an impressive shot and the photographer has taken control of the image to produce a spectacular portrait. Brendan wins £150 Warehouse Express vouchers and a high quality, large format print of the winning image courtesy of www.bigexposureprint.co.uk

  • Runner-up: Carol Clements

We see lots of light painting photos but this is one of the most imaginative and interesting we have seen in a long time. Well done Carol, you win £50 of Warehouse Express vouchers which we are sure you will put to good use!
