stunsworth Posted November 19, 2017 Share #3 Posted November 19, 2017 Well done Pete, I thought it was the standout image - even if the baby looks like Mussolini (do Italian babies look like Mussolini in the same way that British babies look like Churchill?). 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
david strachan Posted November 19, 2017 Share #4 Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) Congratulations Pete...such a moment we all hope to capture. Luck favours the prepared. I was dissapointed with my Australasian One entry...got almost no votes (wrong image really)...but the point is, the camaraderie and the chase. We all remember our fellow friends and the very comfortable times together. Great you all had a wonderful time. all best..

erl Posted November 19, 2017 Share #5 Posted November 19, 2017 It warms my heart that two of my favourite photographers and travel buddies pulled off the accolades. Well done Pete and Lars. No small effort from Tony in third place. So congratulations to all three. It must be said that all entrants were tough competitors and it would have been easy to select otherwise. Competition is sooo arbitrary, when in fact all entries were commendable. Well done all! Also, thanks to Andy for organizing and coordinating, even though I was unable to be there. I do know how onerous your task was. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

farnz Posted November 19, 2017 Share #10 Posted November 19, 2017 I am genuinely humbled to win the Leica One Challenge for a third time and amazed but extremely happy that my picture received such excellent support. My congratulation to both Lars and Tony for the well-earned placings of their excellent pictures! Thank you to Andy for organising the Challenges and the dinner, so ably assisted by Ann. Thank you to everyone for your contributions in picture form or for simply being there and making it such a pleasant weekend! I regret not being able to spend enough time with you, my friends, this year but I look forward to remedying that next year if not before! MacMillan Cancer Support does such a wonderful job of comforting those unfortunate people who contract this awful disease and help and guide them at a time when they're at their most vulnerable and in need of help and understanding that I have decided to donate the prize to MacMillan. I'm already looking forward to seeing you all in Lyon (and I really hope that means you too, Erl!) next year and hopefully welcome some new faces too. À bientôt, mes amis!! Pete. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
