Perfect Portrait Winners

Greetings everyone. I am currently on the freeway leaving Louisiana and on my way to Alabama right now on day 3 of my trip taking pictures for a book about the Civil War that happened here in America in the 1800s. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I am traveling just in case I am a little slow to get a post up, but don't worry, I will be doing everything I can to make sure that the contests are still running.

Everyone did great with their entries this week. You all have truly captured the essence of the people that you were photographing.

• Reminder If you got 1st or 2nd place in the previous contest the highest place you can get in this contest is 3rd place or Honorable Mentions. I am doing this so that many people have the opportunity to be rewarded with the top prizes.

Thank you all

Thank you all for participating. I love seeing all of your entries and all of the new participants every time a new contest theme is announced.

I want to thank my sponsors @czechglobalhosts, @pfunk, @spiritualmax, and @guiltyparties and the rest of the @steemcleaners team for helping to make this whole contest for you all possible. It would be awesome if you could all visit their pages and show them support as well.

For those that don't know, @czechglobalhosts puts on two daily photo contests that are open to anyone to enter. His contests cover the entire globe so that anyone can enter. The days and themes are:

Australian Monday

African Wednesday (My personal favorite)

On top of the themed daily continent contests, he hosts a daily travel contests specific to the beautiful country of the Czech Republic. So make sure to follow @czechglobalhosts and participate in his contests because he is offering two daily photography contests that you can enter to win.

One major sponsor to the contests is @pfunk. For those that don't know @pfunk is a very active witness on the platform that is doing a lot behind the scenes to ensure that your user experience is a smooth one.

@pfunk aids in the process of new account set ups, a big part of Steemit Chat, and a part of the @steemcleaners team. @pfunk also is a huge supporter of the Open Mic contests run by @luzcypher.

You should seriously consider casting a witness vote for @pfunk.

Cast your witness vote for my sponsors

If you have free witness vote slots, you should really consider voting for the Steemit Witnesses behind Steemcleaners and also voting for @arcanage. @arcanage is one of the main witnesses that is fighting all of the phishing scams that are going around on the platform. All of the witnesses listed below work tirelessly behind the scenes to help make your Steemit experience as pleasant as possible, and your vote is a way of thanking them for all of their hard work.

@guiltyparties and everyone else behind @steemcleaners does so much for the platform as a whole, trying to reduce the spammers, phishing and plagiarism that goes on here. If you have any free slots for witness votes you should consider casting a vote for @guiltyparties, vote for @patrice, vote for @anyx, vote for @pfunk, and vote for @ arcange. Your votes for these great witnesses go a long way in ensuring the platform continues to thrive.
