- The prizes the winners receive have changed. Read more below.
A few words about the Monthly Theme Contests
So, now it is time for the Monthly Theme Contest for March 2017! The Monthly Theme Contests are a fun challenge for all! Every month we choose a Theme and we ask you to participate by each sending us one Street Photograph each time at streethunters.net@gmail.com. That photo must be based on the Monthly Theme. So for example if the theme is Long Shadows, then we would like you to each send a photo with a long shadow moment. Your photo can be taken any time in history, we don’t mind, as long as it has been taken by you and nobody else.
What Is This Month’s Theme?
This month we would like to ask you to participate with Street Photos of “Flash Street Photography”. We would like you to send in street photos snapped with a flash. We will not accept just any photo, only photos that really rock our world! So, send in clever photos captured using your flash. We look forward to see what you will send in!
Please follow the example of the photo we are sharing with you here.
What Does The Winner Get?
The photograph that wins the Monthly Theme Contest will receive the following prizes:
- The winning photo will be featured on our website in the respective “Announcing the winner” post and will also be featured for 1 month as our cover photo on our Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus pages.
