Hit Us With Your Best Shot

The Winning Entry: Sea Nettle Jellyfish:  Piper vonSederholm

The first contest was such a hit, we're rolling out another. This week's theme: The Man-Made World. Drop your best shots into the pool. Full rules (and more info about Piper's photo), after the jump.

From Piper vonSederholm:

The Sea Nettle jellyfish photo was shot in May 2005 at an exhibit in
the Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg, TN using a Canon PowerShot A85.
It took around 70 photos just to get that one since many common
digital cameras at the time didn't work so well with motion in low
aquarium lighting. I took the picture for the same reason any other
tourist would: it was something beautiful and mysterious that I could
never see at home.

I am currently a pre-med student at Eastern Kentucky University in
Richmond, KY. Photography has been a hobby of mine for the last five
years.

Photographers! We want to feature your work on PopSci.com. Upload your photos, and the editors' pick will be highlighted on the site, along with a short profile of the photographer. This week's contest’s theme is "The Man-Made World" (which leaves you plenty of room for interpretation) and our winner will be chosen on Friday, August 15, 2008.

A few guidelines:

• All photos must be taken by the submitting photographer. Do not submit other people’s work.
• Please include, in the info section on the submission page, a short explanation of what the photograph is and how it exemplifies The Man-Made World.
• There is no cap on submissions per photographer. Please enter as many of your pieces as you’d like.
