February is the shortest month of the year, but there has been no shortage in the number of fantastic photographs posted up in the Corner Forums and in the Corner Galleries. Since it’s the last week of the month, it’s now time to decide which photograph was the best on posted in the past month and award that photograph as the upcoming photograph of the month.

In addition to having their winning photograph displayed on the homepage of PhotographyCorner.com, the winner, if they’re a Premiere Member, will receive the NYIP’s Fundamentals of Digital Photography Course (a $398 value!!) - the perfect course for anyone looking to take high-quality photographs. The Course is designed to teach you how to take photographs that truly capture the beauty of the people and places around you from the comfort of your own home. This home-study course includes beautifully illustrated lesson books, 8 hours of audio commentary, and DVD video training. In addition, you will have access to a personal student advisor who is there to guide you through the Course. If the winner is not a Premiere Member, they will receive a Lifetime, Level 1 Premiere Membership. The contest is sponsored by (not surprisingly based on the prize) the New York Institute of Photography - the world’s largest and oldest photography school. Established in 1910, NYIP has grown to become the premier provider of photography training, educating more than 20,000 students in the US and around the world at any given time. NYIP offers 3 home-study courses designed to teach you everything you need to know about photography from the comfort of your own home.
