We asked you to help us find amazing photographers on Steemit. Here they are!
Last weekend we played Star Search Saturday, a new game where we asked you to mention new photographers on Steemit who may not know about The Photo Games. The Photo Stars went through your suggestions and voted on their favourites. There were many excellent photographers, and as you can see it was a hard choice for the Photo Star judges and ended with a tie for the first place!
We will be sending out prizes to both the nominators and the nominees soon (the prizes will be split between them), and we hope to see them all playing in the Photo Games in the weeks to come! :D
