23rd December 2009 - Guardian Reader Photo of the Year - Top 3 place
The Big Stuff! -
Chosen as one of Dan Chung's top three in this year's Guardian Gallery. Look for frame 18 of 20, but all the rest are worth a look too. Dan Chung said: 'This shot by Steve Mundy is a classic; nothing revolutionary but it is crisp and nicely executed. The framing is good, the shutter speed for the blur perfect and the tones from the early morning are lovely. I’ve often tried to take shots like this myself, but somehow fall short. Steve has done well here.' [Put in by ja, just in case you think Steve is showing off (would he ever?

). How can we get them to mention mcc?]

Further to Dave’s weekly news email of 1st October here is the article from DSLRU - with mug shot! He also reported Steve's shortlisting in this week’s
Daily Telegraph photo competition but forgot to mention that it is the 3rd time he has made the shortlist in the past 4 weeks. . .
. . . and Steve has just learned that he won this month’s competition in the
Guardian too! No camera this time though, only a £200 canvas print voucher. He says he thinks the left wing papers are not as generous with the prizes as the right wingers! [I think he has moved up a division and should be grateful, anyway. The day he makes the
Guardian Centre Page spread (a good reason to buy the paper, incidentally) I'll be totally lost in admiration - ja]
Well done Steve - we'll keep this page going as long as you get at least one good citation a month!
