Congratulations to the winners!

Congratulations to our two random winners Petri Damsten and Ali Alsulaiman. If you two are reading this, please send Lee Morris a private message and let him know what tutorial you want from the Fstoppers.com/store.  This critique was a lot of fun and we urge everyone to explore the other images that didn't make the final 10 selected for the live show.

If you want to submit your own images to our next critique, head over to Fstoppers.com/contests or click on this link to the Stormy theme. All images must be submitted by October 13th by 11:15pm Eastern. Each member of the Fstoppers community can submit up to 3 images, and just like this last contest, we will pick 2 random winners that are not necessarily the highest rated photos (we still would like to see your ratings though).

Rules & Prizes

Some pictures are "worth a thousand words" but most photos pretty shallow. We want to see your images that truly do tell a story. 

A standard portrait isn't going to cut it for this critique. What is the subject doing? What are they wearing? What's happening in the background? We want to feel some sort of emotion within seconds of seeing your image.

Each photographer is allowed to submit up to three images. We will be choosing our favorite images for the critique and giving away two tutorials from the Fstoppers Store to the images that we loved the most. For this critique, the highest-rated image will not win a free tutorial so there is no point in trying to down-vote your competition. 

Make sure you add details about the concept, and how you photographed your submissions in the description box. Images without a description will be disqualified.

I'm so appreciative of the amazing 1.24 rating on my image, for me it tells a wonderful story, so thanks for voting it up :)

How about a contest to post your favorite snap shot. :) or contest for your worst photo. :) That'd be fun.

Everyone would be happy with their ratings! ;)
