[Congratulations to the Winners!]
1st Place Winner:
"Resting Dragonfly"
By: Springfeather
Some comments from the judges: "I love how in the description you describe how the subject just happened along when you were searching for a model. The image is exceptionally clean and clear. The detail is stunning! The colors vibrant! One gets the feeling they could reach out and touch it, in they have a mind to."
2nd Place Winner:
"Flowers"
By: Aezira
Some comments from the judges: "Overall Impression: This is beautiful. The flowers were captured in a marvelous way, and I love how you made the whole picture look like, in my opinion, pearls. It is not lifeless black and white, but shining pearls, and it makes it gorgeous. This touch is also very creative compared to other pieces where the colors were not changed at all. The focus in this piece is also amazing. Overall, it is a very nice picture."
3rd Place Winner:
"New day"
By: Morgan-Lou
Some comments from the judges: "I love the color contrast in this picture - I find that blue and yellow look very nice together. My favorite part about this piece is the sun and it's rays. It is really lovely. It is a very skilled piece, the way it focuses on that flower, then the other flower is blurred, but then the sun is blurred in the background but at the same time it is being focused on. I also love the title and I feel like it fits. This picture just struck me as beautiful."

I see that you are only accepting 5 entries and I'm on my phone right now and it's 10:00pm here Lol your kinda popular and lots of peeps know u and they might get their entry done quicker than me and I REALLY wanna enter. Anyway, the question was, can you hold an entry spot 4 me?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OOOOooooohhhh.
I'm sorry, I cannot hold an entry spot for you.
Because you can enter all the way up to the deadline.
I list the 1st 5 position because there "must be at least 5 people entering or it gets cancelled."
So yes, sweetheart, you will be able to enter when you are ready (as long as it's before the deadline of June 30th)

Indeed.
I was planning to hold a series of Photography oriented contests for those interested in that, but I was unsure which direction to start from. since one of my contests just ended, I was about to create a new one to take its place.
Thanks for the idea!
