My photo on the cover of KFAK’s program

I’m a member of the Copenhagen based photo club KFAK (Københavns Fotografiska Amatør Klub). I was so lucky that my photo of an escalator at Copenhagen Central Station won the monthly competition of march 2009. KFAK has a nice habit of using the winning photos in their program brochure, which is now out for the autumn season, and mine made the cover! There are lots of great photos in this brochure, check it out. If you live in or outside Copenhagen you should learn about KFAK. It’s a nice photo club with lots of activities and competitions. It’s got its own dark room too.

And here’s the brochure, with my photo on the cover:

Zombie competition – the results

Some of my readers remember my post-process competition “They’re coming!“. I was not sure if anyone would participate, but I am happy to announce that I’ve had 11 participants!

I’ve carefully and closely looked them through in order to give you a final verdict on which picture is the best. I’ve also tried to include a comment on what was good and what can be improved. Here are the results!

Post-process competition: “They’re coming!”

They're coming!

So I was to this Zombie Crawl in Copenhagen and got some cool pictures there. I posted a picture for critique on the photographer forum d70sverige.se, and many people said that it was a good picture, but could benefit from some post processing. That the picture is pretty good, in combination with the exclusivity of the image (most people don’t have the opportunity to photograph live zombies) made me think that it could be pretty good material for a competition.
