“Congratulations on capturing this perfect estuary at such a moment. The light
and composition make this a very special image of which you should be justly proud.”
Helen Brocklehurst, Head of Publishing for the AA
“Well done! I would like to congratulate you again on your success in the Landscape Photographer of the Year Awards 2017.”
Charlie Waite, founder of Landscape Photographer of the Year Awards and world renowned landscape photographer
“To bear witness to a moment like this requires effort and endeavour: it rarely happens by accident. And there are still judgements to be made in composition, exposure and post-production rendering…...the quality of light and shade looks really natural and is very well judged.”
Joe Cornish, leading landscape photographer and Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society
“Jolly Nice!”
Rachael Talibart, award winning seascape photographer
“What a beautifully subtle image, with a lovely restrained use of colour. It makes me want to pack the car and head for Wales right now.”
David Noton, international travel and landscape photographer, Canon Ambassador and Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society
“Simplicity is a key compositional quality. This is a really effective shot – amazing light and contrast, and the figures add great interest and scale.”
Ross Hoddinott, professional landscape and wildlife photographer and Nikon Ambassador
“The colour palette is lovely, and shows good vision with the calm foreground, which has the richness of muscovado sugar, against the cool and menacing sky, which looks like a foreboding wave about to fall on the foreground and wash it away.”
Richard Curtis, Adobe Systems Europe
“Who knows what this fisherman and his boat have been through over the years? They've both obviously been in service for quite a few! There's a great story being told by this photograph, supported by great composition and a brilliantly captured brooding sky.”
Tom Redfern, Paramo Directional Clothing Systems
“Stunning Josh! The trig point gives scale perfectly.”
Robin Goodlad, award winning landscape and wedding photographer
