The winner has been announced. Congratulations to...

At the beginning of October, I challenged photographers to make amazing photographs using only a flashlight, and the winning image is a testament to the creativity of the Fstoppers community.

The inaugural Photobox Instagram Photography Awards (PIPA) concluded last week with the winner getting a very impressive cash prize of $6,500. However, I feel rather dismayed and further disillusioned by the winning image.

Creating microscopic or macroscopic photography requires considerable skill and proper equipment. But you don’t need to be a professional photographer to appreciate the fascinating world that this mind-blowing imaging opens up.

This is your chance to participate in the Flashlight challenge, prove you can make an amazing photograph with any light source, and have your photograph featured in an Fstoppers article all about you!

For all you creators out there! LG understands there’s more to the final output. There’s also the “process.” All the hours spent working, toiling, creating, that no one ever sees. The endless brain-strain and ideating a creator dedicates to their goal is what makes up their UltraWide Time. Few will ever see or understand the process, where all the work and magic happen. But LG understands.

Congratulations to the Winners! Fstoppers teamed up with SLR Lounge and B&H to give one lucky person their choice of a premium camera from Nikon, Canon, or Sony. Here are the entrants who won.
