This is the place to submit and vote on photos for the week of 3 Dec to be featured on the main site. This contest should showcase your best quality work, demonstrating at least moderate skill with a camera and a general understanding of the artistic aspects of photography. Remember, the selected photo will be displayed on our main site header for a week. Submit something that you and the members of our site will want to look at and admire for seven days!  This contest is for the community to choose what they LIKE (not what they dislike), with the most liked being displayed on the main site header for a week.

There is no theme this week

Submissions may be added any day of the week until voting closes. The winning image (with the highest votes) as of the close of voting will be exhibited on the main site.

  • \$\begingroup\$ I made a mistake with the link to the larger version of my photo for the POTW winner. I know you're busy so it's not super urgent but if you could update it when you get a chance that would be awesome. 500px.com/photo/18259155 @jrista or anyone else that could help. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Yes, of course, I used a graduate filter to dark the sky and on the blu of the sky I added a little bit of saturation and contrast. On the face of the church I used a lighter brush. \$\endgroup\$
