Geometric honorable mention

Honorable mention for this week's SunShots series "Geometric" goes to Amy McGovern for her picture titled "Mill Grinder." The photo was taken with a point and shoot camera at the Fountain Rock Park in Frederick, MD, of a historic lime kiln. Here is a critique by director of photography, Robert Hamilton: "The photographer made several smart choices in the way she shot this picture. First, was in shooting through the kiln, which gives the reader an interesting perspective. Secondly, rather than shooting straight down the tube, she shot it slightly offset, which gave the image a more intriging composition."

Automobiles winner

The winner for this week's SunShots series "Automobiles" is Matthew Tompkins for a humorous photo of his wife Christina and 3-year-old son Nicholas as they appear to be holding up a Lamborghini, shot at the company museum in Italy. Giving credit where it is due, Christina actually staged the photo for her husband to take with her Canon Rebel T2i camera. Here is a critique from Baltimore Sun director of photography Robert Hamilton: "Funny and imaginative pictures are always a pleasant surprise. When I came up with the category, there's no way I could have imagined something like this. This would have been a total home run if it had been just the 3-year-old holding up the car. He did a great acting job for the picture."
