CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR "MACRO MOMENTS" WINNERS!
  
The images were fantastic! Click HERE to see all of the submissions.

Faye Wong's incredibly detailed "Ecology" scored her a $50 Amazon gift card and photo.net membership.
2013 JAN CONTEST 1 

Because Faye won both popular vote and Facebook vote, our January winner stepped as a guest judge to choose our 2nd winner: "The Big Biker" by Agoes SK. 
2013 JAN CONTEST 2   
Here's what Miguel, our Holiday Colors winner, had to say about this image:

When I am taking a picture, I am not trying to capture just an image, I am trying to tell a story in a very creative way. At the same time, I am trying to leave a little bit to the imagination. In macro photography, this is hard to achieve because there is not much information in the picture. What is trying to tell me here, this eye? Or what is this little bug doing? For this reason I was impressed with THE BIG BIKER ant by Agoes Sk, it is just amazing how the photographer captured the moment. It  triggered my imagination, it is a little bit abstract, but sudently totally obvious, then the composition is creative and beautiful...I just loved this picture.

Private Folders - Photo.net members have been asking for a way to hide some of their images from public view. This may be because they are experimenting with a new technique, photographing subject matter that they do not want to appear in their portfolio, or simply because they want more control over who sees their images. Photo.net subscribers will now have that option. For more information please click here.


 
"Errors & Omissions" Coverage Added to Insurance Package at No Cost - Photo.net has long partnered with Willis of North America to offer Photo.net subscribers discounted photographer's liability and equipment insurance coverage. Now Willis has added Errors & Omissions coverage to their already popular insurance package at no additional cost.

Here are a few examples of when E&O coverage would be beneficial:

  • You left your lens cap on during an important moment.
  • You had the name of the church but your GPS navigated you to the wrong address and missed the wedding.
  • You failed to notice your camera was not recording images because you forgot to insert a memory card.

And many other situations. For more information on the E&O coverage, please click here.
