New competitions will be announced shortly.

Cheers,

I am more than a little disappointed at the description as to why this was
the winning entry.

"In the end, everyone agreed that it came down to one image. So we award the
prize of an Epson 1410 printer to Tony Dimmock of Melbourne for his image
Passing Storm 2, shot at Lake Mungo. The judges felt it was a strong and
dramatic image, showing patience to get the sky and lighting right."

The description given by the artist shows that he completely erased the
original sky using photoshop and replaced it with another sky, yet you say
that the photo shows patience to get sky and lighting right.

lolol. That's funny - really quite funny.
A quick look is all that's needed to see that it's obvious that is
exactly what he's done. Long evening shadows on the ground, and clouds
lit from well above. The photo must have been taken on Tattoooine.
