It was extremely difficult to choose a winner for the 'Just Awesome Competition' for the month of February.

But after much debate, we decided to award $10,000 each to Hugh Williams topping the scenery/nature category, and Garnet Lopez for his outstanding entry in the people/humour section.

Now that we have chosen our winners for February, the competition is on again for the entries for March.

Each month, THE STAR will be giving away $10,000 for what we consider the best pictures in the scenery/nature and people/humour categories.

If you wish to enter the competition, send your entries to:

The Just Awesome competition has been going on for more than six months now and already we have awarded more than $100,000 to persons who have found themselves in the winners' circle. Here are some of the persons who walked away with cash prizes.
