Warming Up

Crawford Lindsay

The judges loved

this perfect

silhouette of orienteer

Jess Tullie. There’s the

slightest of gaps under

her leading foot, so she

doesn’t merge into the

ground, and as such

appears to be floating

effortlessly along.

Radical

Carlos André Viana

You don’t need

scattering earth or

spraying water to tell you

this skater is in motion;

the shape of his body

and the curve of the

skatepark’s bowl let you

know he’s hit his peak

and will be descending

pretty shortly.

What the judges

liked about this

image was the way the

runner himself is almost

incidental – what really

grabs your attention is

the colourful track, and

the distorted shadow of

the athlete in full flow.

The Barrel

CROWD VOTE WINNER

Here, the wave

acts like a natural

pathway through the

image, pulling you into

the centre, and straight

to the surfer’s awestruck

expression as the wave

barrels overhead.
