Congratulations to last months competition winners and a big thank you to everyone who took part.
1st place and winner of our $50 prize was @Deleted Member 5003 with his awesome dragonfly mating shot. Nice catch Ray!
2nd place was @alexpler with his shot of Epiphany at La Boqueria Market, Barcelona.
3rd place was @twamers68 with his cracking short-eared owl shot.
Also in joint 3rd was @NatureBoyOhio with his lovely railway line shot.
For this month and the final month of 2023 (where did the year go!!) there is no theme again, but perhaps post your favourite shot of 2023!
Competition Dates
Entries start: The date that this post is published.
Entries end: December 20th at 3am Eastern Time (9am GMT)
Voting starts: December 20th at 3am Eastern Time (9am GMT)
Voting ends: December 27th at 3am Eastern Time (9am GMT)
What Do I Get if I Win?
1st Place - The first place winner will receive a $50 (US Dollar) voucher for B&H Photo OR Amazon (you can choose depending on your country and preference).
2nd Place - The joy of taking part.
3rd Place - The joy of taking part.
There was originally a prize for 2nd and 3rd places but these were withdrawn in June 2023 I'm afraid.
There are no alternative prize or cash options, so if you are unable to accept a B&H or Amazon voucher I'm afraid you will miss out on the prize.
If your local currency is something other than US dollars then the above amounts will be converted based on the exchange rate at the time.
In the event of a draw for 1st place the entry date will be extended but not past the last day of the month. If there are still equal votes for 1st place then the prize will be split. I can't think of a better way of doing this for the time-being! If this happens I may also only be able to offer Amazon vouchers since $20 is the minimum for B&H.
How to Enter + Rules
I'd really appreciate feedback about how the competition is running but please don't post it in this thread. Instead please post any feedback in this thread in the Feedback Forum.
Thank you for participating and good luck!
