Last week’s theme was an easy one and was quite a popular one with many photographers judging by the number of awesome submissions I received. So, as always, it was a very difficult task to select the winner and finalists for this week's contest.
Hats for all occasions is what was required,
and I certainly received a nice collection of those.
So let’s have a look at this week’s selection!
AND THE WINNER IS:
@axeman
AND THE FINALISTS IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER ARE:
@achmadyani
@adam-aj
@gingbabida
@jaroslawszafran
@leeart
@oscarps
@sarahkhann
@stevejhugget
@vanj
@yati
The prize money will be distributed later today:
Thank you so much to all my usual supporters who take part on a weekly basis as well as a big great thank you to all the new participants joining us every week, to me you are all winners.
Later today I will be announcing the theme for Week 20.
If you have suggestions which are a little “out of the box” for different themes you would like to see in this contest please leave them in the comments section below.

to @juliank for sponsoring this contest and making it all possible.

congratulation for all winner.
Congratulations to all the winners and organizer of this contest. Pity I was too busy to submit my hats shots.
yes what a pity, next time though!
I think with the winner today is quite satisfactory. Better yet there is a macro photo contest, every week a lot of steemit users who make macro photo post, everything is nice and unique .. I am also a photography lovers but many obstacles that I have to do .. I think this week you opened a macro animal photo contest a small one, thank you
