Congratulations to Ryan Minion, July 2023 PFRE Photographer of the Month! The theme this month was "Master Bath/Ensuite."

Master bathroom with cream interiors complete with a bathtub and twin mirror and wide wooden cabinet
  1. Ryan Minion - Entry #833
  2. Tim Cotter - Entry #847
  3. Tacey Jungmann - Entry #851

Here is what Ryan has to say:

Fantastic!  Thank you for the announcement.  

  About this photo:  

It’s always nice when the homeowner has great taste in finishes and decor.  This bathroom had a nice linear design and I wanted to accentuate that in the photo.  In this frame, we have leading lines in the flooring, rugs, rectangular tub, and walls that take the viewer into the space.  The hard lines are complimented by the round table and vase.  I kept the exposure bright and airy to imply cleanliness, which is important in a bathroom.  While this is strictly HDR, I blended frames using luminosity masks to use the natural light in the room and eliminate any color casting by the fixtures.  

  I shot this using a Canon 5D Mark IV with Canon 16-35mm 2.8L lens.
