Billed as the world's greatest photo game, GuruShots is an online platform that provides a fun, structured way to showcase your images while gaining global exposure for your work.
By competing in epic challenges against millions of photographers, you can get instant feedback from over three billion monthly votes and increase your ranking from Newbie to achieve the ultimate status (and bragging rights) of Guru.
GuruShots' challenges are voted on by the platform's Gurus and the wider community, and there’s a fresh challenge every day. Winners can receive prizes from GuruShots' sponsors such as Adorama, Kodak, Lowepro and Lensbaby.
The 'Personal Perspective' challenge tasked photographers with pushing their creativity and trying something new, something awesome, and something uniquely their own – and the entries received certainly met that brief.
Fantastic photographs were sent from all corners of the globe, from Albania to Yemen, and encompassed everything from powerful portraiture to weird and wonderful wildlife.
The 20 highest ranked images were published in Digital Camera Magazine, and we send our congratulations to the winners. We're pleased to showcase the top 100 images below, with the rest of the top 500 featured photographs below in the gallery that follows.
