The Renaissance Photography Prize: ‘If it’s worth taking, it’s worth entering’
Leo Burnett supports this international photography contest that raises money to support younger women with breast cancer. We asked famous photographers to share the stories behind some of their iconic photos. Here Uli Weber’s shot is of a famous wall. “It's rare that in a photograph the background is almost more recognisable than the famous sitters themselves. Isn't that the wall from the movie, 'The King's speech', and yes of course, the three beautiful young ladies from Downton Abbey. This is the most often heard response.”

Homebase "Make your house your home"
"A terrific new direction for Homebase sees a family redecorating their home using a starting point so many of us have begun with ourselves...It's stylish, smart, and even the low-key music plays its part. As a whole, this ad - and its counterpart for gardens - shows Homebase as effortlessly inspirational and an eminently sensible choice for people who are discerning without having vast quantities of disposable cash. Great stuff." David Reviews
