Winner of the 2015 Hancock Hill Award ($50)

“This shot is a good example of a photographer exploring their environment and spending the time to watch what happens as the light changes. Another similar shot was entered in the contest and I assume that it was by the same photographer as it looks like it’s taken at the same location a few minutes before this one.
Good job of shooting, waiting, watching and catching the moment. Well- executed although I would have cropped the left side a bit closer, eliminating the fence and fence post on the left-hand side of the image. It would unclutter the composition.”
