With his sixth Contest Corner Challenge victory, nrshapiro won Contest Corner Challenge #84: Parallel with his photograph (pictured right) titled “Parallel Waves.” The photo garnered over 1/4th of the votes (you can check out the final voting results here in the voting thread). If you haven’t already, be sure to browse through all 38 of the entries into the contest in the CCC#84 photo gallery, which now shows who took each photograph (you’re more than welcome to comment/tweet/like photos directly from the galleries as well!).

Since Neil is (of course) a Premiere Member, he’ll receive the Lowepro Inverse 100 AW Camera Beltpack (courtesy of Lowepro and Daymen Photo Marketing). Make sure to drop by the award thread to congratulate Neil on his win (and to check out a full-sized version of the winning photograph).

If you’re a Premiere Member, the Lowepro Inverse 100 AW Camera Beltpack (courtesy of Lowepro and Daymen Photo Marketing) will be all yours if you enter and win this contest (if you’re not a Premiere Member, you’ll pick yourself up a Lifetime, Level I Premiere Membership). You have until Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011 to get your entries in. Of course, we’re talking about Contest Corner Challenge #84: Parallel.

Oh, and the theme? This one is pretty straight forward (pun intended). Go out and take a photograph where the main elements of the photograph form parallel lines. Remember, you must take the photograph during the contest period (March 7th, 2011 - March 23rd, 2011). You can read all the other nitty-gritty Contest Corner Guidelines & Regulations here. All the contest details are available on the main contest thread in the forums (you can discuss and ask questions here as well).

So go grab your camera, find some parallel elements (they’re seriously everywhere - I bet you can see a dozen examples from right where you’re sitting now), and get your entry in!

I’ve made some more progress of the past couple of days catching up on the backlog of submitted articles, tutorials and product reviews for the Corner Resource Center. We have 4 new articles courtesy of SchoolofPhotography.com (with more than a dozen to come) as well as a review of a Lowepro camera bag written by me (more Lowepro/Daymen reviews to come as well).
