"I don't have time to edit" is nothing but an excuse now, especially when there are so many sweet prizes on the line. We believe that limitations inspire creativity. While it is not always possible to travel to exotic places or grab a bunch of friends to go out and shoot some photos, we encourage you to look into repurposing what you already have.

As a special treat, our friends at [Skylum](https://skylum.com/l/pexels?utm_source=pexels&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=pexels-challenge) are providing Luminar 4 to help make beautiful edits. This special version created for the Pexels community offers a super long 60-day trial to help you complete this challenge (or any school or work projects!) and comes with a special Pexels goods pack of presets, skies, and textures to get you started. Works with Mac or Windows. **[Get Luminar 4 free here.](https://skylum.com/l/pexels?utm_source=pexels&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=pexels-challenge)**

Dust off your hard drives and re-edit those photos you've put off from a past family trip, try a new preset on photos you never gave a second thought over or take an existing photo you love and turn it into something completely different. With this challenge, anything goes! There will be three prizes including a Fujifilm X100V camera as well as cash prizes and Skylum Pro bundles for the runners-up.
