Dear Dyxumers,

I'm pleased to announce the winner of the "Home Office" DPC which this time is also the most funniest image:



"Ready for my meeting!" by brian33





Let's hope that Brian remembers next time he meets his client that is not just, well, completely ready. I meant tie of course.

This time an Honorable Mention goes to great image as well with great execution and an idea:

Congratulations to the winner and the HM for great work!

Last but not least - thank you all for voting and participation in this DPC

Happy shooting,
Svjetlana

Brien, you made me smile

p.s.
Last week I had a "prod-stop" situation - 2 hours on tele with the client starting at 6 am - obviously I had my usual uniform on - pyjamas :D Fortunately no video.

Yes, the definitive Covid-19 working from home image from our winner. Being done all over the world as we speak, and the main thing one has to remember is not to stand up.
Congrats on capturing the zeitgeist of our times, Brian.

And of course that poignant image from our HM Mike having to resort to flight simulation while the world's airlines are effectively almost completely grounded.

Few entries, but after Brian posted his shot many people gave up and already knew the winner. Also a great effort by Mike, capturing the essence of a lockdown. Congrats to both of you

Hey guys, what a lovely surprise! I've been absent from the site - on holiday with poor internet - and have just come back to see this. So pleased! As soon as I saw the DPC I knew the photo I wanted to make.

Funny thing was I posted it to instagram at the time I'd shot it and I was out in the neighborhood and ran into a couple I know who also live in the neighborhood (in France we were only allowed to stray 1km from our house during lockdown) and the wife said to me, "Well Brian, your instagram shot was the first time I've ever seen you wearing a suit," to which her husband replied "so that means you've already seen Brian in boxers?"

Congrats to Mike for his HM, a very meaningful image! And the other entrants as well, a very fun DPC!

Two fantastic images. This DPC completely passed me by, but such humour along with perfect execution in both winner and HM. Brought a smile to my face, thanks both

Add me to the list of those that missed the announcement - too busy at work in the home cupboard office!

Excellent images both of how we have had to cope recently but the good humour of Brian in the 'work attire' was always likely to be the winner!

Well done all and best regards, Neil.
