Microsoft Windows Phone Monthly Photo Contest - Pet Photos
Microsoft held its first Windows Phone Monthly Photo Contest last month. The first contest them was pet photos and Microsoft received hundreds of photo entries.
After sifting through them all the Windows Team Blog staff picked a handful of entries that stood out for their creativity and execution. These photos are highlighted the Blog's website and include the above photo by Max. K which was taken with a HTC Mozart.
There is no word on what the contest theme will be for this month but once we catch wind of it, we'll pass it on. In the meantime, if you're sharing photos via Twitter, use the hashtag #WPPhoto and Microsoft may highlight them on their official handle.
You can find the full selection of pet photos here at the Windows Team Blog website and some of our favorites after the break.
