1st place prize, February 2025, special subject "Through the Window". Catching the very last rays of sunlight really made this image pop. Stereo base was 4 or more feet between fence posts on which I braced my DSLR. It required a big effort to clone out all the people and vehicles that moved between shots and to create the false border.

In a 4-way tie for 2nd place, February 2025, special subject "Through the Window". Taken at a recent GGSS get-together at Point Richmond, I took this stap of our club president Mat with his own XReal Beam Pro camera. I liked the snap but didn't quite know what to do with it until realizing that it might make for a good through-the-window image.

Tied for 2nd place, March 2025. Wave crashing against the Marina yacht harbor jetty during some extreme wind and swell. I was able to approach fairly closely as the spray is being directed almost straight up.

First place prize, April 2025, special subject "Mergers". A shot of an even more powerful wave crashing the same day as the previous winner. This time in black and white, cropped in to purely highlight the sculptural forms of the spray.
