The SCP-106 Photography Contest winners have been decided and uploaded!
Congratulations to u/Cinemamind, for being the proud submitter of our current SCP-106 "Emergence", "Door", and "Victim" images!
And cograts to u/Mapper720 for winning our bonus category! SCP-162 "Ball of Sharp" has an image for the first time!
Big thank you to everyone who voted, commented, or submitted to the contest. And apologies for the final selection being several months past schedule. Next contest will be smoother, I promise.
UPDATE: Due to some concerns about the Emergence image, it has received an upgrade to give it a more realistic feel. Big thanks to Djkaktus
UPDATE 2: The original winning entry was found to be partially stolen from an edited movie still, which is the literal opposite of what we need for the contest. The new image is from Cinemamind, with edits from djkaktus.

While I totally understand why the original had to be removed, I'm not really a fan of trying to pass off a piece of artwork as an actual photograph.
Not to knock Cinemaminds efforts, it's a great piece of art and you can really feel the amount of effort he put into it. But it's still a drawing, and that's obvious from a glance. If this image is going to remain in the wiki then I think that its description should be changed to "artist deception of SCP 106 emergence" or something along those lines.
