Last month’s photo contest ended in a tie! We’re holding a runoff vote between the top two photographs to determine the winner. Read on to vote, and find out the theme for December’s contest.
Readers, looks like you couldn’t decide on a winner in last month’s photo contest; two photographs tied for first place! We’ve decided to hold a runoff between the top two vote-getters to determine the winner. The poll will close this Friday, December 5, at 4 PM. Scroll down to see the finalists and cast your vote in this head-to-head competition.
In the meantime, you can start submitting photos for this month’s contest. Our theme is . . . drumroll, please . . . portraits and people! We want to see photographs of your family, friends, strangers—whomever! Just remember to get creative; a headshot won’t be the best way to go.Here’s how the contest works: You submit photographs, and our panel of judges selects the best ones to publish on our Web site. Then you, the reader, vote for your favorite. The winner will be featured in the February issue of The Washingtonian.
Submit as many photos as you’d like to photocontest@washingtonian.com. Please attach only one photo per e-mail, and include the photographer’s name, e-mail address, phone number, and place of residence along with a sentence or two about where the photograph was taken. Photos should be 300 dpi and at least four by six inches. The deadline for submissions is noon on Tuesday, December 16. Finalists will be contacted when the reader voting goes live.
Oh, and one other thing to keep in mind: All photos must be taken in the Washington area—including the Maryland and Virginia suburbs—and the photographer must be local.
Good luck!
