Dear members,
We'd love to hear some feedback from you regarding the future of our contests here at CRPhotography. What we had been doing for a while, is that each month has a specific theme, the theme being one of the photog galleries on DA (i.e architecture or still life), and the contest would thus simply be to submit something newly created within that photography gallery. However, we have noticed lowered participation lately. So we have a few questions:
1) Have you been participating in these contests? If no, why?
2) Do you think continuing contests based on our monthly themes would be good? If no, why?
3) Would you rather we do contests on different themes? If so, what kind of themes?
4) What type of prizes really motivate you to participate in photography contests?
5) Is 1 month enough for you to produce an image for a contest?
6) Should we be promoting our contests more? Do you perhaps not realize we have contests every month?
We'd really love to get some responses on these questions from you!
Also, if you'd be interested in joining the team as an admin in charge of our contests, please shoot me a note so we can discuss the idea!

31 days of art: an all-mediums challenge!
:star: UPDATE :star: Thank you SO much to everyone who partook in this challenge! I'm in awe and inspired by your dedication, creativity and hard work! There's huuuuuundreds and huuundreds of entries for me to go through, counting how many days each person participated, etc. So bare with me while I work on announcing the winners :heart: Hi everyone, I'm proud to present you with @projecteducate's summer activity: a day-to-day monthly art challenge (à la "Inktober") for ALL artistic mediums (photos, drawings, crafts...all mediums are welcome)! There have been many challenges mimicking this format and I always found them super fun to follow even just as a spectator ;) We recently asked you guys what you'd like us to do this summer, and many of you voted for a monthly challenge with daily themes to follow, so here we are! I hope this will represent a fun way for you to seek inspiration and challenge yourself over the month of August. If you're feeling like you have no new
This is the Photography Community: vol.1
When you think of photography on DeviantArt, who do you think of? Let me know in the comments! This is a series I've wanted to do for years, where in each volume I go over some of the names on this site that make the photography community what it is! If you love nature as much as I do, you'll love exploring @DavidMnr's gallery. I can almost always recognise one of his photos. His forest shots are typically my favourite - it's not necessarily easy to make a bunch of trees look almost mystical or ethereal, but @DavidMnr masters that. A deviant for the past 7 years, he has hundreds of deviations for you to check out. And no, I'm not just including him because he's also from France ;) @Unkopierbar has been on this site 12 years, amazing us all with each new upload. It's hard to even settle on one picture to show, Julian has so many amazing captures. Something about his nature shots is emotive, expressive. You're transported to another part of the world, and on top of that you
Winners of the Big Christmas Raffle!
Hey all! Normally I just update the raffle journal with the winners and info, but it's already sooooo long, and DA no longer lets us re-send journals into our watchers' inbox, soooo, here's a new journal! First off, wow, around 140 people entered the raffle! This was my biggest one yet, so thank you to everyone who donated prizes :love: Information about the prizes: winners, please read! Of course now it's time for everyone who donated a prize to follow-through with that and get in touch with winner 1 or winner 2 (see list below of which prizes go to which winner) Winners, be patient with those giving out prizes, some might not immediately see this journal. If within a week you haven't heard from them, send them a note. If after that they don't reply to the note, feel free to let me know and I'll try to reach out to them if need be :) I'm sending out all the points today (those that were donated through me, e.g. those that say "distributed by mrs-durden" in the list below).
