“Supermix 'Spray Can' Silos’ by Oliver Dandridge
Judges' comments:
"This picture works well because of the visually stunning subject matter that proves street art can be everywhere. The picture is also technically accomplished with a graphic composition and a complementary sky (good choice of weather for photographing!)"
“Warning! Not Suitable for Swimming” by Mohanad Bahshwan
Judges' comments:
"This is an interesting trompe d’oeil: looking for all the world like waves breaking over a smooth sandy beach, it shows the scars of wear on a metal surface as two components slide over each other along a large part of the surface area."
“Mid-September at Ouse Valley Viaduct” by Akim Beckett
Judges' comments:
"This works well technically with a near perfect graphic composition that uses slightly off centre perspective to lead the eye down the picture. The inclusion of a person within the picture adds a human dimension to the visually complex engineering."
“21st Century Conservation” by Eugene Tang
Judges' comments:
"A powerful view of an unusual building, nicely set in scale by the character walking up the steps."
“Physical Filter” by Wei Sheng Cheong
Judges' comments:
"A technically accomplished picture which uses depth of field and traditional landscape composition as well as an intriguing pattern to create an abstract that would work as a large scale print."
“I’m a Huge Fan” by Leo Michel Grosjean
Judges' comments:
"A familiar engineering object seen from an unusual perspective. The photo works compositionally and also as an abstract colour composition. A familiar object but also one that is at the centre of current debate and therefore a choice of subject matter that will appeal outside engineering circles."
“Spinning on the Wetlands” by Kotka Lim
Judges' comments:
"Brilliant lighting - I suppose it's taken late afternoon. he river leads nicely to the turbines. Maybe a little too much sky but overall nice composition."
“Arrows” by Conor Leo
Judges' comments:
"A truly striking shot which makes my eyes follow the trails every time I turn the page over."
“Arizona Aircraft Antenna” by Oliver Dandrige
Judges' comments:
"The choice of going black and white gave the photo a fantastic vibe and it goes well with the 'lonely' subject. Good quality image."
“Impact Testing of 3D Printed Porous Materials” by Shaaz Ghouse
Judges' comments:
"Very nice iterative illutration of the impact test. Very unique photo"
“Pillars of Safety” by Matthew Bonner
Judges' comments:
"This is a powerful shot which can be appreciated more by rotating the picture in the plane of the page."
“Lights Out and Away We Go” by Conor Leo
Judges' comments:
"Photo taken under good lighting and has a nice quality to it. Content relatable to Mechanical Engineering and is very interesting."
