This is actually an old image from 2003 that I recreated in black and white. I am entering the contest as a professional.

@derangedvisions Happy birthday to your daughter.
Here is my entry: Through Beginner's Eye
My Apple tree at the start of Spring this year.

I got the opportunity to get into my best friend's son birth and this was the shot that went all around the family.

How nice of you! Those photos are just something you can't forget. Especially when you just have to wait for The moment for nine months.

I love my girl's privacy, so I decided to participate in with a photo of a special tulip I found in the garden - a new birth of our mother nature. I made it with my phone Samsung A5. I can't decide if I am a beginner or an amateur. All photos I make are for my own collection, and I don't use professional equipment. Usually just my smartphone. So you decide.

I also incorporated this photo in my inspirational post for others to read. Have a nice rest of the day, and I wish you all the best.

Hello Wes,
What a good idea to celebrate 13th birthday of your daughter. As a participant of this party I share a photo from 3 years ago, while my son was a cute infant. Please consider me as an amateur in this contest. Good luck.

You are a professional photographer! It is amazing!

I love his little feet💓

@derangedvisions I hope your daughter had a very happy birthday! She is officially a teenager now. My daughter is 25 and man were the teen years a trip! Teenagers are weird. At least mine was.

I have loved photography my whole life. I should be an expert by now but I do not have a proper camera. Sad, but true. I have an old cellphone that I am thankful for, but it is quite challenging to get a good photo. I have to take twenty or so photos of a subject to get one "decent" photo. So I guess "Amateur" would be my tier as I am not a beginner.

For my entry in "Deranged Photography Contest - New Life" I made this post about a baby tree that sprouted in a flower pot. I took the photo last week and posted it on facebook to see if anyone knew what it was. I even made a post for #treetuesday hoping someone would know for sure what it was. No luck so far.

Hi @derangedvisions, this is my entry for New Life Photo Contest.
This is a bug taking care of her newborns. These insects protect their young from the moment they lay their eggs until they are born, and continue to take care of them for a day or two after being born. Then, each little bug takes its own path.

I want to enter as Amateur Photographer.

Amazing shot. I am a huge fan of macro photography and you are using that to your advantage with this entry. Great job.

Wow, thank you very much, I did not think you liked macro photography. It can be said that I have experience in this field, I have been doing this kind of photos for several years.

Excelente!!!!!!!

Muuuuuchas gracias, ya publiqué en el concurso de streetphotography también.

I have a ton from my best friend's first baby! I flew back home around the time she was due and said, you're getting newborn photos. Haha.

Here's his cute little squishy face. So peaceful. ♥️

Awwwww so cute!!!!

Great idea, it'll be neat to see newborns of all shapes & sizes & species! I was considering submitting a shot from a photoshoot I did of my friends baby, but decided on this instead to get away from the obvious! I loved capturing the intricacies of the build of the nest and the bright color of the eggs! To think that a bird made that with basically just its beak and no hands is amazing!

Using the Helios 44-2 I see. I can't wait for my adapter to come in so I can use mine. Awesome dreamlike shot.

well it is fun, but most of the time you have to think that you are going to photograph with it
