Thank you to all the photographers that shared their photos showing showing symmetry in nature in the Symmetry In Nature Photo Contest with chances to win a Polaroid Zip Instant Mobile Printer and more!

"This was the hardest Viewbug contest I’ve judged to date, because the quality of ALL the submissions was through the roof! Every image was absolutely stunning, so congratulations to everybody that entered. You are doing amazing work! Having spent forever trying to whittle down my shortlist, I eventually started to include the artists faithfulness to the theme of symmetry in my judging. Some where just more symmetrical than others, but all images were beautiful." - Martin Bailey

Grand Jury Winner

"I absolutely love the dreamy feel to this image. It’s light and airy and I can almost feel the chill of the morning and smell the air. This image is also symmetrical both vertically and horizontally, really working to the theme of the contest. Congratulations on a simply beautiful image." - Martin Bailey

Runner Up

"This is one of those moments that nature/wildlife photographer dreams of being presented with. I can imagine the artists heart was racing as they released the shutter, hoping that the squirrel would stay there for a few frames, to ensure that they capital on this golden opportunity. ChiefIntensiv certainly did that. Beautiful composition, exposure and camera height. Simply stunning!" - Martin Bailey

Runner Up

"This scene took my breath away when I saw it. The mood and atmosphere captured here is wonderfully sublime. The processing is perfect and the way the reflected mountain is the most vivid part of the scene offers a sense of being invited into a magical kingdom. Beautiful, stunning work." - Martin Bailey
