LUMIPro Holiday Contest Time!

 I know it is a bit late in the season, but I could not resist the urge to do a photo contest. Let's get to it! Every year we love to see what you guys come up with for seasonal photos, and sometimes they even get to be featured as LUMIPro advertisements! 

This year I thought why not give you two themes to work with. They can be holiday-themed (Christmas, Hanaka, etc.) or goodbye 2020 themed (Happy New Years etc).

Here are the guidelines

We will be accepting contest entries until December 28th. (DEADLINE EXTENDED to January 2nd!)

All photos must be holiday or new years themed. This does not necessarily have to mean just Christmas or your standard New Years party. Think outside the box and have fun!

We will be using photos from this particular contest for our holiday advertisements. So here is a link to some of the LUMIPro logos and banners if you would like to use them.

All photos must be entered in the LUMIPro Flickr Group as well as the LUMIPro Contest Group with Holiday2020 somewhere in the title.

All photos entered into the contest must be downloadable (this makes our job easier) If they are not downloadable they will not be considered.

You are allowed to enter as many photos as you like just please make sure they follow LUMIPro's Community Content Standards.

Also, don't forget this contest is open to LUMIPro users only, and all entries must have been taken while using LUMIPro.

Now onto the fun part... The prizes!

First Place will receive 5,000 Lindens and a LUMIPro gift certificate!

Second Place will receive 3,000 lindens and a LUMIPro gift certificate!

Third Place will receive 2,000 Linden and a LUMIPro gift certificate!

*All gift certificates are transferable.*

I always get so excited to see what everyone comes up with when we do a contest. I hope you guys have fun with this one!

Until next time... Be Creative, Be Inspired, Be Unique, and Happy Shooting!
