Voters- We need your help. A challenge was issued for the CD shutterbugs to grab their gear and capture the holiday season, in any way they felt led. We told them that their them was "Holiday photos (Christmas, wreaths, candles, menorahs, Santa, etc) Something dealing with some aspect of the holiday season we are currently in."
So, we're asking you, which one of our contestant's pictures conveys the winter holiday season the best to you?
Please read this entire post before posting.
Welcome to the first City-Data Photography Contest. It's just for recreation and good times. This contest was just an idea that materialized and we've worked through, and isn't officially sanctioned by City-Data. So if you have issues and or gripes, direct them to me, not City-Data.
If you missed the
Entry Thread, then you missed your opportunity to submit a picture in this contest, but depending on the overall success here, be on the lookout for future contests and PLEASE vote in this one.
Now the details for this thread. Remember, all contestants should be very familiar with the rules/guidelines from the
