2011 - 2012 Annual EDO Photo Contest

If I'm not wrong it's time that the THREE JUDGES select the winner of the Annual EDO Photo Contests.

>> If a winner has more than one photo in the Annual EDO Photo Contest, meaning that one was First or Second Place in more than one semi-monthly (or two places, 1st and 2nd or 1st and 1st) EDO Photo Contest, one has the option to include only one photo, so as not to compete against oneself.

So the three judges will wait for the selected photos. You can see all the 2011 - 2012 winners here:

Hello,

this contest is over, Hemingway is out.

Now it's time to decide who is the Annual Winner.

Thanks a lot.

- Next Contest will be in September / October -

The EDO Photo Contest is specifically designed to encourage and promote photographic excellence, and the photos are judged based on their technical and creative merits.

First of all for us, the judges, it was a hard choice.

Peter Litch has took the best photo.
The perfect mix between technical skill and creative inspiration.
The knife comes out of the screen. No wrong shadows, it could be the correct photo for a catalog or a book.

One little step below Jhon Nugent and Dale Dorris.
Nugent is also close to the technical perfection, but just a little bit less creative.

The Dale's photo is more creative and in my humble opinion has a strong message: a Randall Knife, you merely look after it, for the next generation.
The last words I wrote are from a famous spot of a exclusive wrist watch brand.

So the Annual Winner is: Peter Litch
But it seems correct that the other two photos will be awarded with a Second Place: Jhon Nugent and Dale Dorris.

Thanks a lot for your collaboration, thanks for posting photos, see you in September!!

Congratulations to Peter! And also to John and Dale! Great photos!

Congratulations guys, excellent photos and themes.
You provide some tough competition

Peter

Bravo Peter! Well done...
Congrats to all contenders too.

Thanks Edo and Judges for their magnificent work.

Absolutely! Some fine photos were created this past year and thanks to all. These "3" are each unique in their own way. Congratulations to all ya'll!
Best, Capt. Chris

Congratulations, great work!

Wow, what a great surprise!
With all of these excellent photos and all of the creativity that is connected with making them this is a great honor to me - thank you all very much!
This was a very close race for sure

And a special thanks to EDO, Tony and James for making this possible.

Congrats :-)

Great shots! Job well done guys - when does the calendar come out?

Congrats to all. The photos are awesome! I know I'm really late to this party. Been bouncing around S. America for months. Just wanted to let you guys know I wasn't blowing you off--I had several PM's! Oops.

Great, great shots!

Thanks a lot!
I hope that you will be present at the next contest in September 2012!
