Contest Corner Challenge #68: Hit the Deck challenged photographers to get down and dirty by placing their camera on the ground to take a photograph. It didn’t really matter what they photographed, just as long as the camera was on the ground when they took it. Really the contest was all about changing perspective - it’s amazing how different the world looks from 2 inches off the ground. After a week of voting, tamara’s “Perspective Bound” managed to garner the majority of the votes, giving her a total of three Contest Corner Challenge victories.

For winning CCC#68, tamara picks herself up a LowePro Nova 180 AW Camera Bag (courtesy of the contest sponsor DayMen Photo Marketing) and a bunch of PhotographyCorner pens.

You can check out all the entries (as well as find out which photographer took each photograph) in the CCC#68: Hit the Deck photo gallery (make sure to give the ones you like a “thumbs up” as well!), and don’t forget to congratulate tamara on her win by posting a comment in the award thread.
