I don’t think you could have made the decision any more difficult for Gayle from Mom & Camera! We had 116 entries for the “Nix the Auto” Photo Contest. Each and every photo was fantastic. We were so impressed with the amateurs who took on the challenge of shooting in manual mode, and we felt very inspired by the professionals!
The entries in each category were narrowed down to 15 and Gayle chose one winner from each. The winners of the “Nix the Auto” Photo Contest are…
Amateur Winner: Misha
Congrats Misha! You have won a custom designed Lil Blue Boo Outfit!
Professional Winner: Photography by Misty Smith
Congrats Misty! You have also won a custom Lil Blue Boo outfit AND a month of advertising on the blog!
Thank you to everyone that participated! We have another contest in the works, but for kids! So stay tuned, and keep saying NO to Auto Mode! You have proved that you can do it, just keep practicing. Follow along with Mom & Camera for more invaluable photography advice.
You can view all of the amazing entries on the Lil Blue Boo Facebook page under the Photos tab.
Congrats winners! I really loved seeing all of the entries, there were so many fantastic pics. Gives me something to aspire to 🙂
Wow!! You just totally made the rest of my year. What an honor. Thank you so much for choosing me out of all the other talent out there.
Congrats to the winners! I love both of these photos! It was fun to try my hand at manual mode and enter a photo in the amateur category. All of the photos were fabulous. Thanks for the opportunity to see so much creativity and for the contest!
