Terry's comments are as follows:

I am completely surprised, honored, and humbled. Thank you! As a realtor and photography enthusiast, the men and women of this blog educate and inspire me every time I pick up my camera. I was blown away by the incredible photography in this month's contest.

I loved shooting this house. The home was built by a friend of mine and its design in suburban Atlanta is quite unique. This is a single shot image capture edited in Lightroom to bring up the shadows, sharpening, saturation, and a few other minor tweaks. I was fortunate to have the sunset at my back which helped keep light in front of the house as the sky grew darker. I shot with a 5DM3 and a 17-35mm 4.0 lens. It was shot at f14, 160 ISO at .8/second. If you want to see more of this home visit: http://635puckett.info/video-tour/.

A little background on me: I started shooting my own listings several years ago when I bought my first camera, a T3I. I purchased Scott Hargis e-book and consumed it in one night. I then invested in his video series and learned even more. I had the opportunity to study with Scott at his Atlanta seminar and learned a ton about shooting twilights, particularly preparation and unique composition.

I have to give Scott Hargis and Iran Watson much of the credit here. I've admired their work as the standard I strive for when shooting. Thank you guys so much. And thank you Larry for PFRE. Know I am grateful for your time, talent, and energy keeping up this blog. I need you, and everyone need PFRE.

  1. How do we see the judges' comments on the entries? I see the photos at the link "Browse the contest entrants," but only see a few comments. Are there more available? They have been very helpful in the past.
