Hey guys! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Your challenge is to take a picture of something that looks impossible. For example, get a snapshot of an object impossibly “balancing” on your hand. Have an object “levitate” under your control. Your job is to make the action in the photo LOOK impossible. The method can be the most impractical thing on the planet; even a still frame from multiple photos will work! The criteria is as follows: creativity, composition, lighting, and one more factor: make it look as convincing as possible that it’s real. Only catch? No photoshopping . It has to be a real photo taken directly from the camera, but color correction is allowed.

Post your photo to Instagram (or upload directly in your response) tag us @theory11 and use the hashtag #theory11, and post the link to your photo in response to THIS forum thread by no later than 11:00pm EST tomorrow, Sunday, October 19th. Once time is up, we will decide on a winner based on the criteria listed above.

Every single entry requires a NEW photo submission. There are no old photos allowed.

What can you win? 1,000 Elite Points, 5 Decks of your choice from what we have currently in stock, along with a deck of Monarch Prestige Edition!

Good luck!

My entry is a picture of myself holding an invisible card.

It was surprisingly difficult to capture! Having a card on a mount, two light sources so that the card gets a shadow and my hand is still lit with no messy shadows... not an easy shot for a single person to take. Anyway, I hope you like it :)

Just shot a brand-new straight-out-of-camera photo: a theory11 Monarch deck perfectly floating 3 feet above my open hand in broad daylight, no Photoshop, no visible supports, no blur, just pure impossible-looking magic using the most ridiculous off-camera rig imaginable. Color correction only.
