Zeiss competition finalists (1 Viewer)

Fantastic selection of photos and it won't be easy to pick a winner. I'm struggling between 2, Dipper and Northern Harrier. Good luck to all.
 
The Northern Harrier in flight is fantastic. But then, the others are great also.

My goodness, they are ALL exquisite. My favs are the Bullfinch and the Sparrowhawk but any of them could easily win! Great job!

I'm honoured and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Cheers, Jens.

I never thought that the selections will be based purely on simplicity.

I thought I would see some of the finest BIF shots here. o:D

Anyway.. congrats to the finalists!

gobsmacked never got anywhere in competitions and against such stiff opposition, glad I don't have to make the final call, all are worthy winners.........
 
Like the others who have been selected, I am delighted to have made it to the finals. Thanks to the moderators for their efforts.

I have to admit the tension is significant. It's a very good group of photos indeed.
 
Was going to enter but missed the deadline. I've done that several times now. I've enjoyed the entries though and I'm sure its going to be a hard decision. Congratulations and good luck to all the finalists.
