I was notified today that I won the "Toys" Viewbug challenge. The photo I entered was one I had taken as a demonstration to show a fellow member how I would go about achieving a shot similar to one he had posted a link to by a Russian portrait photographer named Elena Shumilova. When I took my photo I didn't have a live model to work with so I grabbed a stuffed elephant from the grandkids toybox, set it up, took the shot and post processed it. If not for that thread I never would have thought to take a picture of one of the grandkids stuffed animals but one thing led to another and I won a challenge because of it. I will post a link to it in a follow up.

Walt

Walt,

Congratulations. Did you submit and win with the PP'd version? Did they make any comments about it when you found out you won, or before? What were your winnings . . . only if you want to say . . . just curious. If you don't want to say, I fully understand.

Nice job, Walt!

Best Regards,
Tom

Yes, the pp version. I receive weekly rankings with the challenges so i knew this was in the top 10% but have been in the top 10% with quite a few challenges but not won in the past. There are no actual physical prizes awarded for challenges - only for contests. That'll be my next hurdle - to win a contest and maybe a new camera. Thanks.
