announces
the 3rd International Photography Competition
CONTEST TOPIC:
• Windows
Look at and through the windows not just a glimpse, but carefully. Look at the world that opens behind them. Try to catch how it changes depending on your mood or the weather, when you want to close or, on the contrary, open a window. Take a closer look at how you can see a window from the inside, but what if you look at it from the outside? The image of a window can be very different: it can reflect reality, or it can become a metaphor, a symbol. In a word, the main photo hero of this year’s competition is the Window.
The photo works will be considered in the following categories:
GRAPHICS, LANDSCAPE, PORTRAIT, STILL LIFE, STREET PHOTO, BLACK&WHITE PHOTO, PHOTO DETAILS and a new category PHOTO SERIES (up to 6 works).
