The PoP Peep Project – Entry No. 4 and 5

Resist

Thanks to Victoria Pickering (an awesome photographer often featured in Photos from PoPville and elsewhere if the name looks familiar) for her interpretation of The PoP Peep Project. While not a diorama, unsurprisingly, I love them!! If you dig them as much as I do, check out all the others on her blog PeepCycle Inc..

As heir to the Washington Post Peeps contest, I take this competition very seriously though I allow exceptions for awesome attempts like these!  All entries should be emailed to [email protected] with ‘The PoP Peep Project’ in the subject line. Please include a brief description about your entry and please include 2 photos, one closeup and one capturing the whole scene. Entries should be based on local topics of interest if possible and sent by the end of April. Depending on how many I receive, I’ll post all as I get them. I will then pick 5-10 finalists that you guys will vote on. I will take the winners out to dinner and drinks (unless the high school kids win, then just dinner.) I will also bury the winners (and 2nd and 3rd place) in PoPville t-shirts. Good luck!!
