What are daily contests?
The daily contests are a set of photo and video challenges offered by Scoopshot, in addition to the tasks run by brands and publishers. Fun contests like #selfiesundays, #streetart and #reflective give users a chance to be creative and push the boundaries of their photography. Nine daily contests will run every day for 24 hours, and every Scoopshot user is welcome to submit one image and cast votes in each contest. We send you new contests everyday, so make sure to check today’s contests.
