The Golden Palace by Suraj Krishnamurthy Cheemangala
This image was captured during our December 2020 trip to Lofoten. Despite it not being the ideal time to visit due to the frequent rain and strong winds, I managed to take this shot on my phone as I couldn’t use my DSLR. The yellow cabin contrasted beautifully against the moody blue skies and dark Norwegian landscape, standing out boldly in front of a silhouetted mountain. The weather was challenging, but it added a dramatic touch to the scene. The serene yet rugged atmosphere of Lofoten in winter made the experience unforgettable. Every element in the frame came together to highlight the raw beauty of Norway.
Behind The Line by Klara Marciniak
While walking my dog in Budapest, I saw two elderly people walking hand in hand on a day after rain.They go out shopping every day at the same time. They always dress ceremoniously. The sun hit an electric pole and cast behind them an interesting, line-like shadow on the wet asphalt. For me, this gave the image a symbolic meaning.

The sunshine was glaring, and there was a stillness in the air. Taunton, Somerset, offered the perfect conditions to step into the garden and capture its vibrant colors and intricate details. I was thrilled to photograph this particular leaf with such clarity, using nothing more than an iPhone. The level of detail I managed to capture was truly a delight!
