01/02/12 4-Related Digital Projected Images Competition. Any Subject but the images must somehow relate to each other. Eg 4 Shots of different castles (average). 4 shots of the same castle with differing viewpoints, close up details etc (better). The previous 4 shots but have something extra like being taken at different times of the year or tell a story of a particular event at the castle is a good entry. The best you will have to come up with yourself ! The subject is open so please don't you all put in pictures of castles!
Ralph Witty has obviously read the above paragraph because his entry has won the 4-Related Competition.
The subject? "Castle Headland" !!! Here are his shots.
