The RyMickey Awards - Best Cinematography

Cinematography deals with lighting and frame composition and there were several beautiful films this year. Here's the list of winners (admittedly, I didn't see The White Ribbon which was highly touted for its cinematography).

Best Cinematography 2009

Runners-up:

#7 - Avatar - Mauro Fiore
#6 - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Bruno Delbonnel


#5 - Where the Wild Things Are - Lance Acord
Who would've thunk every known shade of brown would be so pretty?

#4 - Thirst - Chung-hoon Chung
About halfway through the film, the story shifts to take place mostly indoors in a creepy apartment where the lighting takes center stage.

#3 - The Hurt Locker - Barry Ackroyd
Stark and washed-out isn't an easy thing to make appealing to the eye, but Ackroyd succeeds.

#2 - Antichrist - Timothy Dod Mantle
An absolutely stunning black-and-white film filled with disturbing images.

#1 - Bright Star - Grieg Fraser
Simply lovely. I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing this on Blu-Ray.
