Some of the images I shot for the Photo5 Challenge.. :)

Thanks to my beautiful friend, Elena I was able to create some images that i was happy enough to send to the Canon Photo5 competition this year. The brief I was shooting these images for was the portrait category where all photogs were required to use the spectaculars which has been sent by Canon. However I was not one of the finalists (Boooo! Would have loved the 5D MkII...), I enjoyed it so much to get the result through my camera that I had in my imagination.. :) Only 1 of these images fit into the requirements and has been entered for the portrait brief, but I because I really like them I thought I'll show them anyways... :)

Competitions are great challenges for all of us, photographers as it gives us a brief to work on, come up with something different and creative, in other words: stretch our boundaries.
Canon's Photo5 competition is great fun, and I can recommend to all photographers (beginner or professional) to enter, or at least play with the props Canon send out in the box. You can fin out more about the competition here:www1.canon.com.au/worldofeos/photo5
