Congratulations to the winners!

We took a trip up to New York City last week and sat down with Peter Hurley to critique 20 high school senior portraits submitted by the community. Here are the results. 

Due to the short timeline of our trip to NYC, the submission period for this episode was a little shorter than most and the images we chose to be critiqued were selected almost as soon as the deadline closed. After we filmed the video, the community continued to rate the images and the highest rated image changed. Although Lee announces the image submitted by Marcos Hernandez as the winner, his top rated spot was soon overtaken by Joe Baker's image. We've decided to reward both entrants a free tutorial. Additionally, Daniel ORourke was selected as randomly chosen winner. Congratulations to all three of you, we will be in touch via your Fstoppers' profile to claim your prize. 

If you missed your chance to be part of this critique, join us for the next one. Although he wont be part of the judging process, Peter chose the next theme to be "Minimalistic." 

Rules & Prizes

Our next Critique the Community is now open to submissions. Submit your best high school senior portraits by Thursday at 12PM EST for your chance to win a free Fstoppers' original tutorial and be critiqued by Lee Morris and Peter Hurley. 

This week we're planning on spending some time in New York City where we plan on filming with Peter Hurley. Though Peter is known for his headshots, we thought it would be fun to have him critique something a little outside the scope of his standard photo shoot. Due to the tight turn around time, we're only giving a few days to get your submissions in. To clear up any possible confusion, we announced this contest as "senior portraits." This genre is intended only to include high school senior portraits, not pictures of the elderly.

We will be selecting a total of 20 images to give feedback to. Of the selections, the highest rated image by the community will receive a free Fstoppers' original tutorial of their choice. In addition, we will be selecting one entrant at random and also give them a free tutorial. 

Once you've submitted your images, be sure to go through and rate your fellow community members. Rating everyone's images can be done quickly by using the arrow keys and numpad on your computer but feel free to take the time to leave critical but helpful and considerate written comments as well.
