*** Update – The contest is now closed, thanks everyone for your great submissions. Winner will be announced on Monday so check back **
It’s time again for another fun photo contest. The theme of this contest is going to be one of my favorite themes, Dramatic black and white. It can be a portrait, landscape, floral, anything you want the only rule is it has to be a black and white shot and dramatic. That might mean dramatic lighting, really high contrast, it can mean a lot of thing but the key is your best black and white shot that has impact! I can’t wait to see what everyone enters, the last few contests have had some really great work!
For this contest we will pick one winner for a $100 Black River Imaging giftcard! We will also feature a few runner up’s on our website. To enter just upload your image below where it says “Add Photo” (max size 600×400). Make sure to enter your website address or name in the Caption so we know who you are! Also only one entry per person. NOTE: Once you click submit the image does need to be approved and may take a few hours, just click the submit button once we will get your entry online soon.
The contest will end in one week next Friday September 24th at the end of the day PST. Lets see your best shot!
