DANIEL MCDONNELL

Legal Counsel at Intesa Sanpaolo

London

Daniel’s photo was taken in Killarney, Ireland

Our professional photographer judge, Laurence J. McMahon said:

A very nice composition indeed with the branches framing the top and nice highlights and shadows in background.

The square crop works well and the red boat, perfectly placed, draw the eye around the scene perfectly.

Well done.

including

Dinner for 2 on one evening

2 night stay in Vivenda Miranda, a luxury boutique cliff-top hotel, in the Algarve, Portugal with dinner for 2 on one of the evenings.

2nd PLACE

Liz Poon, Consultant Lawyer in London

Liz’s photo was taken in Jordan.

Our professional photographer judge, Laurence J. McMahon said:

I feel the breathtaking emptiness of this place.

The person caught as a silhouette make this image and gives it purpose.

The placement of the subject silhouette ( with arms out) on the rock and between the background mountain range works really well.

3rd PLACE

George Marshall, Lawyer at Baker McKenzie in London

George’s photo was taken in Sintra, Portugal

Our professional photographer judge, Laurence J. McMahon said:

“Nicely framed shot of this wonderful looking place.

The gold/yellows mix well with the deep blue sky.

I want to know more.”
