Competition Gallery
We are delighted to announce the results of our Lumix Lifestyle Photographer of the Year competition 2011.
First of all, a huge thank you to everyone that submitted an entry to the competition.
As expected the general quality of the entries was extremely high, and so the entrant’s descriptions and user galleries were in the end crucial to the final decision being made.
But, Phil Surbey had to choose a winner and two runners-up and so without further ado, it gives us great pleasure to announce that the Lumix Lifestyle Photographer of the Year 2011 is…
Gordon Simm with his entry ‘Just a-walkin the dogs…’
Second place goes to Peter Norman with his entry ‘Sunlight, camera, action’ and 3rd place to John Nicholson with his entry ‘Woodland Fantasy’ – congratulations to all three.
Gordon wins two tickets to the Focus on Imaging 2011 event in Birmingham NEC, where his winning entry and selected gallery images will be showcased at the Panasonic stand. Also Gordon is awarded a £500 voucher to spend on Lumix G kit, plus a premium print of his winning entry delivered to his home address. The runners-up also receive two tickets to Focus on Imaging 2011 along with a complementary premium print of their entries.
During the judging there were a number of standout entries that came very close to the top three positions. See below the images we felt warranted special mentions.
And finally do remember that we will be running our Photo Challenges each month along with more competitions in the near future, so make sure you stay creative with your Lumix G!

"What a great action shot! Gordon's done really well to freeze this moment in time. He's shown great technical ability and knowhow with the idea and setup of this shot, getting everything right from the viewpoint and the direction of the sun to the combining of his choice of focal length with a fixed focus position. He has also utilised a fast shutter speed to freeze the action, combined with a wide..."
