Wonderful Water

Damien DemolderThe theme for this photo challenge is water. You might send me a picture of the rain or of a river, a glass of fancy French sparkling with a slice of lemon or the ocean stretching away into the distance.

What I am looking for though are photographs that demonstrate the qualities and characteristics of water; its fluidity, its clarity, its reflectance, its ability to distort and so on.

Go on, stun me by passing light through it, by bouncing light from it, by showing me what it looks like moving, still, frozen or falling from the sky. The water might be in the landscape, in a bottle or in the bath – all you have to do is make the most of it.

As always, originality will be rewarded.

The prize

 

The winner of this contest will receive a fabulous Hähnel ProCube2 battery charger. This super-fast charger can power-up two batteries simultaneously and gets the job done much more quickly than standard chargers – from flat to fully powered in about 50 minutes.

Hahnel ProCube2

It comes with interchangeable plates so it can accept three different types of Panasonic battery, as well as a plate for 4 AA cells. It also has a USB socket so cameras that charge via USB, such as the GX80 and GX800, can benefit too. It will also do your phone, of course.

The ProCube2 gets your batteries to 75% really quickly, so it is easy to top-up to get you through to the end of a shoot, and the amount of charge in each battery is displayed alongside the number of mAhs added during the charge. Supplied adapters allow the ProCube2 to be used in the car and with UK, USA and European sockets.

Users of DMW-PLC12, BLF19 and BLG10 batteries will be able to use the charger – so users of all current G series models and FZ models will be able to charge their batteries. For more information see the Hähnel website.

Good luck – you have until midnight April 29th to enter.
