| Description | |
This weeks competition is inspired by a recent walk around Sheffield when I took some shots of buildings looking up at them rather than face on. Look up covers any subject so long as the point of view is looking up at it, or them. Be it towering buildings, small flowers or tall trees they are all welcome so long as they are shot from beneath. The usual rules apply, Pentax or Samsung cameras only please. Good luck! |

I always love the different interpretations of the theme and that is one of the things that I enjoy about the competitions, so well done to everyone who entered.
As always however, there can only be one winner so congratulations go to:

Runners Up:
Look App by aliengrove
The bridge pillar by axelLuther
Sorry to be brief with my comments but I am not at home so needed to be as quick as possible this morning!
Winter Tree Tops by tyronnet2000
Really like this shot, neck cricking height, a real sense of scale and a pleasing subject.
On the wing by guy
This shot is clever, be it planned or not, I like the gull in the frame, the helicopter and the sun. Nice.
Sky Fall by Mowser
Brilliant use of the 3 paragliders and the tree tops gives the viewer a sense of height. Nice crisp colours too.
Cathedral Gold by bforbes
Beautiful colours, great sense of scale and height, brilliant.
Look App by aliengrove
Super framing, huge sense of height and scale, topped by an excellent conversion all just perfect.
Rob on the Roof by John Riley
Nice take on the theme, would rather Rob than me, like it.
Angel and admirer by davidtrout
Great composition, the person adds to the sense of scale, nice shot.
Prickle by dodge69
Another shot with neck cricking height, and a real sense of scale. Pleasing subject and conversion.
On The Edge by davidstorm
Fits the theme and yes you must have been low! I really like the shot very well framed and executed.
Beat of street by velimir
Different take on the theme, but I like this. Would like to have seen the view from the pushchair that would have been great!!
Sir Walter Scott Monument by nicesparky
I know the subject and really like the angle of the shot. Definitely makes the monument look like a huge space age rocket!
Kolpetty Krows by Dr. Mhuni
Superb shot all round, very nice indeed.
Strange Birds by ddharriman
Really like this shot, well captured and yes there are beautiful in a strange kind of way.
To the rescue by kosh
Great capture, like the off centre framing, very good.
High Vaultage by SkyRider
This made me feel dizzy and left me feeling that I had a real crick in my neck. Like it!
Pied Kingfisher in flight by Noelcmn
I really like this, the angle, the framing and the movement in the wings.
Gills by geordie01
Clever shot, very well executed all round top photo this!
St Peters basilica by japers45
Nice capture, you get a great sense of the majesty here and I love that shaft of light.
Ovoid for Easter by Perspicador
I didn’t know what to make of this to begin with as I wasn’t too sure what I was looking at to be honest. It is an ovoid for Easter, and I assume that it is the moon, please correct me if I am wrong.
Flying lion dance by wallnut45
Nicely framed and executed shot, looks like the lower man is running on the bottom of your lens!
Villandry – Vintage 2012 by dromfit
Yep they look tasty! Nice capture.
Who says people do not fly by ArsenAl
Very clever and superbly executed shot!
Vatican City by paulb531
Well captured shot, beautiful colours well caught.
White Bay Power Station by Greenway40
I love these types of shots, the rust, the height, great capture.
The bridge pillar by axelLuther
Wow, this shot really has the wow factor to it!
Gloucester Cathedral by Jim-w
Well captured shot, you certainly feel the height and majesty of the building.
Hide and Seek by jak
I see them hiding! What a superb shot, are those rhubarbs – surely not?
Thanks again, Andrew
