Vote for the 1st Mostly Lisa Photog Contest Winner

With out further ado, (as I think I’ve ado’d for a bit too long on this one), here are my top 8 picks of the very first Mostly Lisa Photography Contest. There were so many amazing photographs, but I had to pick the photos that best represented the theme “Summertime”. And here they are:

The Anonymous Surfer
The Anonymous Surfer by Nik Fletcher.

Sunset Photos at Sunset Bar and Grille in Duck NC

Carnivale
“Carnivale” by Scott Bradley.

Summer friends

Who do you think should be crowned the first Mostly Lisa photography champion and win this super sweet prize :o?

    They’re all great, but I think I’ll have to give my vote to Summer Ride by Rob and Lauren. It’s simple, but unusual.

    its pretty tough, but i think i would have to pick the fireworks over downtown san diego as my favorite. Its pretty tough they are all great images. For me I would say carnivale comes in a very close second, but those are just my thoughts

    Good luck everyone! Those are great prizes Lisa. :)

    wow. Tough to decide. I have to say the fireworks over downtown San Diego is probably my favorite and then next would be Carnivale and then Surfer then Sunset. I like Fireworks and Carnivale for the level of difficulty because I’ve taken photos like those and can appreciate the shutter speed and intensity of trying to capture those shots. Shots like that are carefully crafted, I feel.

    Hmmm, my vote goes to Anonymous Surfer. Pretty awesome!

    ps I already have a mostlylisa tshirt and one of those monkeys — I even have an elephant :) — so I think you should reward me with a wordpress button for … being awesome or something.

    BUT…

    i am going to have to go with “Summer Ride” – that dude and his mutt look like they are having the time of their lives.

    great post.
