Thank you to all the photographers that shared their photos showing shadows and to our friends at Tamrac for making this photo contest possible! Tamracโ€™s founders were outdoor enthusiasts who loved nature photography. They had a strong need for camera bags that were tough enough to offer excellent protection, yet were easy to carry and allowed fast access to camera equipment to capture spontaneous wildlife pictures.

A special mention to all the photographers that helped us find the People's Choice and to friend & professional photographer Lindsey Pantaleo for her collaboration as the guest judge. Lindsey is a fine art wedding and portrait photographer based in the Midwest. Her photography career has sent her all over the world to document stories. She specializes in weddings and high school seniors. Her work has been featured in various publications such as Style Me Pretty, Le Magnifique, and Seniorologie. In addition to running her business, she loves teaching photography. Lindsey is a staff writer for Fstoppers.com.
