Summer Competition…Winners!

It’s been a long summer at holgablog, trying to get some new things off the ground ,sponsoring Holgapalooza (still time to enter!), wlecoming new writers, reviewing new products, and having a few competitions.

Our summer competition was a celebration of sun, sea, sand, blue skies, and lots of other things I don’t see very often in Scotland!

The judges had all voted for their favourites, and we were left with five way tiebreaker.  We decided to let the public decide on the winners via a poll.

We thought the poll would be the ultimate way to let the public decide the winner, but after a few complaints of it’s fairness we have decided to reward prizes to all five finalists.  We have to apologise for the delay in announcing the winners, we have been trying to secure prizes for everyone!

The top two winners from the poll will still receive the Smena Cosmic Symbol cameras, but the other 3 finalists will also receive some prizes too.

So, the top two poll winners were:

Congratulations!  You’ll hopefully be receiving your Symbols in the post very soon!

Also a big congratulations to the other three finalists, who will be receiving some goodies.
