Submit Your Best Images With Unique Shadows
Congratulations to the winners!
Check out our video critique to see 10 incredible photographs and two lucky winners.
Rules & Prizes
In this week's contest, we want to see images that focus on the absence of light. We want to see the unique ways you've used shadows in your photography.
Each photographer is allowed to submit up to three different entries. The highest-rated image and one random entry will both win a free tutorial from the Fstoppers Store. If you're unsure which tutorial you'd choose, may I suggest our newest tutorial, The Well-Rounded Photographer, that covers eight genres taught by eight different instructors.

Excellent choices. The woman in the window is a fascinating image.
Any one else having the problem that your image doesn`t appear in the contest overall view? I have to click into "yours" pictures view to find it. But it gets votes.. And the recent B/W contest my picture is gone there also. But I can click into the first winner picture inn full screen mode and from there click further with the right arrow and then my picture appears. This is Extremely frustrating because I finished fourth and as an hobby photograper I am proud of that. And it would be so nice to take a screenshot of the highest rated view and show that to the model girl also. I have contacted Morris, but it is still gone. I have no problems with my Pc, and this is the first time I have experienced this at Fstoppers.
As for images submitted, I can see my test image.

Hi Thank`s a lot Eddie! I downloaded your screenshot so I can show the girl the fourth place :) And now suddenly I can see my car image in "all" mode. But the girl is still missing in my "all" and "highest rated" mode. This is very strange. Never happened to me before. But now I tried Microsoft edge browser without being logged in, and I can see the girl in the highest rated view... Maybe it suddenly is something with Firefox I am using that causes the problems?
I don't think the issue is with Firefox itself because I'm using it and don't see the issues you're having.
I brought up contacting support because last week (or two), they were having issues with all those tabs so I'm assuming there might be a bug after they've fixed it. The bug being you can't see your submissions in the 2 tabs.
Try these tests:
1. Log into Edge and see if the girl photo disappears from the Highest Rated tab.
2. Log out of Firefox, close and reopen, do not log in, and see if the girl photo appears in the Highest Rated tab.
If 1 and 2 = True, then, I could be right about the bug. Otherwise, it could be a Firefox extension, though, I'm pretty sure unlikely.
Thank`s for the tips. Now I have tried them and it seems that the only way for me to see the girl at the same time with other images is in M Edge. Both in an out logged works. But in Firefox nor in and out logged or close and reopen in or out logged works, it`s gone. The reason I contacted Morris was that I thought something happened when they "took it out" for critique in youtube.
