Hey folks,

We’ve had a couple people asking about who the results of the Tamron 85mm f1.8 Di VC USD lens, and today we’re happy to finally announce who the winner is. It was quite a tough contest not necessarily because of the entries (I’ve learned how to cull to the very best by now) but because the creme de la creme of the entries was very difficult to choose from.

But we’ve got the winner below.

The winning image is being awarded to photographer Paul Johnrou Bechayda for this photo above–which we found to be spectacular overall amongst the bunch. Congratulations to Paul! We’re already in contact with him.
