You got the posters and stickers, you stuck them everywhere and you shot your prophecy - And boy, didn’t you do a good job at it! But did you shoot your way to success? Who are the talented 3 lomographers who’ve won themselves a once-in-a-lifetime trip to visit Lomography HQ in Vienna? Read on to find out the winners and some special surprise prizes too!
Congratulations and thanks to all of you who took part in our huge Shoot Your Prophecy rumble. We loved every one of the creative ways you came up with of shooting the posters! We had some truly great shots to pick from – With over 3000 photos submitted, we had shots taken with Fisheyes and Supersamplers, LC-As and Lubitels, and all kinds of other analogue cameras too! But it was great to see a unifying force throughout the entries, wherever they were taken in the world – A deep and innate passion for analogue photography! But, alas, alas, there can only be 3 winners for our awesome grand prize, a trip to visit the Lomography Headquarters in Vienna! So, without further ado, here are the 3 big winners!
North and South America – Jorgesato
The simplicity of Jorgesato’s photo of a sticker against the sky perfectly captures the beauty of analogue.

Europe and Africa – monkeyballs
monkeyballs really got us giggling with this photo capturing the avant-garde of analogue!

Asia and the Rest of the World – Flyaway
She may have been boxed-in but Flyaway really let loose with this lovely photo!

A huge congratulations go to the 3 of you! We’ll be in touch by email soon to arrange the trip!
But that’s not all – We were so impressed with so many of the entries that we’ve decided to award some highly commended photos with 50 Piggy Points too! Here are our highly commended finalists and their photos below:

marant69
Congrats to all the winners! Thank you for the great runner-up award. And @superlighter hai visto alla fine ci hanno messo uno vicino all'altro ;-) ( penso che come Marco Aurelio l'Austria avremmo potuto conquistarla e invece, hehehe ;-) )
zoezo

adi_totp

@zoezo same for me...! :((( too bad... so no fashion next time and more "classic" shots though it was asked for something new and creative...
lakandula
Kudos to the winners of the Vienna trip! Thanks LSI for the 50 piggies.

Congrats to everyone! Like some others here I'm a bit heartbroken myself. Even 10 piggies would have been nice for some of our creative work. I really tried with this one. :( Congrats, congrats!

It seems to me, some people are getting too competitive and bitter when it comes to piggies. That's sad.
Congrats to the winners! @jorgesato , curta bastante Viena! I love your photo, @flyaway . And @fivedayforecast, your idea was great, congrats!
boredbone

ricah_018
aww, i have the same sentiments as @zoezo and @mephisto19. i really did try to think of unique ideas to get those posters out there. i skinned a camera, had my friends raise eyebrows at a public restroom, and made those look twice shades. fine, call me a sourpuss.
iidiko
Congrats!! :)

goonies
@marant69 io facevo il tifo per te :)
marant69
@goonies ti ringrazio tantissimo! Io dopo avere visto i lavori di @superlighter ed altri mi ero già convinto di non potercela assolutamente fare per la vittoria del viaggio, la menzione d'onore e i 50 piggies sono stati una bellissima sorpresa! :-)
mikahsupageek
congratz to all !
goonies
@marant69 in effetti anche il lavoro di @superlighter merita parecchio e anche quello di @zoezo garbava tanto. Certo il viaggio era allettante ma con 50 porcellini si fa una bella scorta di rullini!!!

congrats winners, and thanks for the 50 piggies! never thought my sucky drawing skills could get me anything!
unexpected winning pics though, and like a few others I think I was expecting to see something else for the top winners, since you asked us to bring all the creativity we've got. ah well. next time!
lighttomysoul

Congrats to the winners, and to all the participants! I confess, I didn't even try, knowing that many more skilled, experienced and gifted lomographers than I am as a newbie would scratch themselves to make it on this rumble :)
