According to the competition organizers, the award seeks to recognize a photographer who can provide more than a single winning image, and demonstrate a “degree of consistency and repeatability to their skill and imagination as a photographer.”

“My passion for landscape photography is based on a love of nature, especially in places where human intervention is not yet visible,” said Moscow-based Ershov of his work and love for landscape photography. “Just being in location at dawn and watching the start of a new day gives me tremendous vitality.”

Also part of the announcement is the rest of the 2019 special prize winners, including the International Landscape Photograph of the Year 2019 winners. Magali Chesnel from France brought home the top spot and Sander Grefte from Netherlands and Adam Hoszang from Hungary grabbed the second and third places respectively.

The New Nikon P1000 Has a 125x Optical Zoom with a Laughable 1/2.3 inch Sensor for $999.95

Today, for some odd reason, the Nikon P1000 point and shoot camera is being announced. Odd, you ask? The fact that it is a point and shoot isn’t such a big issue at all; but the fact that it’s a superzoom camera being marketed as one with a 125x optical zoom is what’s insane. Kudos to Nikon for being able to do something like this; but then you read the fine print (or in this case, print that’s not even in the press release) and see the bait and switch–this Nikkor lens is having its potential wasted by being placed in front of a 1/2.3 inch sensor.
