Announcing the Winners of "When Darkness Falls"
We are pleased to announce the winners of the "When Darkness Falls" photomanipulation contest! This was an official, Community-Relations backed competition that was part of Project Educate: Photomanipulate back in June.
Voting was difficult because there were so many great entries, but when we got to work, three very clear winners emerged.
With more than 130 brilliant entries, we felt this contest was a resounding success. We wish to thank all of you who entered; you helped make it successful, and we are really grateful.
You can view all of the entries here.

I will notify donors about the winners. If you do not hear from them or receive your prizes within, say, a week, please let me know.
If you have won a physical prize (llama, t-shirt, print, etc.) please pick the one you would like to have from the dA store and add it to your wishlist IN YOUR SIZE. For the llamas, the link is

I also want to thank my fellow judges:
We all really appreciate the time you took to help make this possible.
Thanks, all!
