Congratulations to Simon, Dietmar & Pete for their excellent contributions and the demonstration, that excellent images can be taken even in Wetzlar at Saturday afternoon.

 

Congratulations as well to Dagmar (I can guess her contribution from the voting pattern) for a strong contribution in a location, which I found, well, challenging; it was one of the two images, who nearly made my third choice.

 

For my part, during the challenge, I felt somewhat like the Graffiti-man below. :)

 

My best thanks to Andy for the hard work to organize the challenge and to everyone for joining and making this quite unique event happen again.

 

Now, let Istanbul come, I already have a plan, where to go and which film to use there. :)

Dear all,

 

first of all, thanks to Andy for the organization and for counting the votes.

Secondly, thanks to those that awarded points to the golden girls of Wetzlar picture, I'm very proud of the result of my first challenge!

 

Thirdly, here are my number 2 and 3 of the 3 guys that were around in Wetlzar during the shooting, and that many of you have seen.

 

See you next year in Instanbul!

Wow, thanks all for the votes!. It's a real honour to hear that I won on my first challenge - hopefully the first of many. Congrats also to Dietmar and Pete for your winning images.

 

Thank you to everyone who took part in the weekend, and especially Andy, for making it the fun event that it was. Even though I found Wetzlar to be a tough subject from a photographic perspective, there are some great photos in this thread that show that it's possible to take a good shot in any conditions, as long as your heart is in it :)

 

The €390 prize fund is a nice cherry on the top, but if I take it I will just spend it on more gear (not always a bad thing!). Since there are many others good causes out there who will get more benefit from it than I would, I would like to donate the money to the Dutch Diabetes Foundation. As you may have read recently in the news, they are making a lot of progress towards a working artificial pancreas which, if successful, will change the quality of life for diabetics all over the world (Artificial pancreas a step closer). Andy, I'll email you to cover the details.

 

Thanks again, and looking forwards to Istanbul!

Simon,

 

What a wonderful, generous, and selfless thing to do. Thank you!

Dear One Challenge participants,

first of all we would like to particularly thank you Andy Barton for the organization of the One Challenge. We've had a splendid weekend in Wetzlar and are looking forward to see you all and maybe some new faces as well next year in Istanbul.

 

Thanks a lot for the points given for our entries - every last little grey cell of us had a demanding workout during the competition time.

 

Congratulations to Simon, Dietmar and Pete - well done!

 

Sincere thanks are given to Simon for contributing the money towards a good cause.

 

Take care,

Dagmar & Carsten

Congratulations to all and especially to the winners. It was a difficult task this year to get a special shot.

Spending the first hour of the Challenge drinking beer with you and Steve Ash seems to have helped so thanks for your 'assistance', Lars.:D

Drinking away the first hour!

Difficult to get a special shot!

Maybe these evidential pics will illuminate the problem.

 

You do have to use your feet and your camera for a result. :D

 

 

Pete off to a good start.
