2006 Grand Prize Winners

Judges’ Comments

冠軍First Prize: 黑長尾雉 Mikado Pheasant

台灣國鳥具代表性,生態背景為難得的雪地畫面頗為特殊,表現出不一樣的特色,測光精準,佈局佳,主體明顯。帝雉在雪地上顯得更加高貴,具羽冠群倫將相之風。

Taiwan’s magnificent national bird stands regally in its high mountain habitat on a snowy day.  The contrast between the deep blue of the bird’s plumage and the white snow is striking.  The well-composed image is technically correct, and captures the subject in an alert, watchful stance.

亜軍Second Prize: 藍腹鷴 Swinhoe's Pheasant

生態背景寫實、豐富,影像品質清晰亮麗,主題明顯,鳥相優良,表現出藍腹鷴華貴的氣質。

The beautiful male Swinhoe’s Pheasant is seen in the undergrowth of its mountain forest habitat.  The image quality is excellent; sharp and rich.

季軍Third Prize: 黃山雀 Yellow (Taiwan) Tit

構圖完整,畫面突出,鳥類形態生動,鳥相具鳴唱姿態,充分表現其生態與生活特性。

The Yellow Tit was captured in song. Though the living bird is small, it dominates the photograph, full of life.
