DPG is very proud to announce the winners of our December monthly contest! The theme for last month’s contest was “Creative Editing” and the winner of $150 cash is Thomas Heckmann.

As always, a big round of applause to our contest judges, without whom this contest couldn’t exist—DPG editors Matt Weiss and Joseph Tepper, along with multi award-winning photographers Steve de Neef, Keri Wilk, Mark Fuller and Jeff de Guzman.
