When tallying the votes for our Monthly Photo Contest, every month is an adventure and a source of delight as we are flooded with such a vibrant variety of submissions.

March Photo Contest Winner:
Miguel Angel Hernandez Alfonso
Congratulations to Miguel Angel Hernandez Alfonso, our March Photo Contest winner, for his stunning shot of a torpedo-darting penguin—a staff favourite here at McBain.
Describing the moment, Miguel said he had been patiently waiting with camera in hand, holding his breath for the perfect opportunity. While most penguins he observed were playful, twisting and turning through the water, one stood out: “A true speed demon,” he noted.
He described the penguin slicing through the water like a missile, sending ripples of energy in its wake. With perfect timing, Miguel pressed the shutter at the moment “when speed and power met elegance.”
We couldn’t agree more—this incredible capture is a true winner!
Honourable Mentions:
Colton Eastcott
Colton’s recent trip to Singapore turned into an impromptu photo op, where he seized the perfect moment to include his girlfriend—arguably one of his best decisions of the day. The photo came just one vote shy of taking the win itself! Thank you Colton for your beautiful contribution!
Jordan Wiess
Keeping it short and sweet, Jordan accompanied his stunning image with the caption: “Banteay Srei Temple: North of Siem Reap, Cambodia.”
A quiet composition that speaks volumes, Jordan’s photo captures the intricate beauty and serenity of one of Cambodia’s most iconic temples. The rich texture, black and white tones, and sense of stillness drew in plenty of admiration—and earned him a well-deserved honourable mention in the process. We hope you continue to share your wonderful art with us!
