It's official: The 2007 Photographer of the Year Shoot-Out is underway. Over the past two months, hundreds of shooters from across the globe have uploaded thousands of their photos to qualify for this year's Shoot-Out. The third annual competition starts today. Over the next three days, these talented men and women from every corner of America and the globe will compete for a $5,000 cash prize and the title "The Best Shooter on the Planet."
The first assignment of the Shoot-Out went up this morning at 9:00 a.m. and the contestants will have a mere 23 hours to complete it and turn it in by 8:00 a.m. tomorrow before picking up their next assignment.
Here's what they'll be working on:
Photographer of the Year Assignment #1
Your Name
Use your first name in a photo creatively. You can find or create the letters any way you wish. Composites are fine, but you must capture the letters with a camera -- no creating the letters with software.
Check back tomorrow to see what they came up with, and in the meantime, click here to take a look at some of the best shots from the qualifying round.
Check out all of the entries here.
