I entered the annual Shoot & Share photo contest for the first time in 2017. I came away from that contest inspired, humbled, and grateful for the results. I was also excited. Super, super excited to keep pushing myself, challenging myself, learning and growing as a photographer and business owner.
I entered again in 2018, which makes this year my third year entering.
Before I get to this year’s results, here are some 2019 Shoot & Share Photo Contest Stats:
583,150 photos were submitted
Over 90 MILLION votes were cast
144 countries involved
174,215 voters
Photos are kept anonymous until the contest is over and the results are disclosed. Once the contest is over, you can see how your photos did and you can see all of the settings for other photographer’s photos entered in the contest… it’s like, free inspiration and education!
