Fantastic images there. There is something so special about number 35, the lighting, the action and the overall story of the childrens lives is amazing.

#35 in there won the amateur people & portrait category of the International Aperture Awards the other day. Not a bad week for that photographer.

Some of those are stunning!

One of mine is in week 9 in the people section and is doing pretty well in the voting too

Wow, I don't know whether to feel inspired or just give up immediately.

Number 35 is breathtaking. Mind you there are still a couple that make me go 'hmmmmm......'

Congratulations James - do you have a link to yours?
