The images sent will have to be final as it will not be possible, under any circumstances, to further edit or replace them once the award has been granted.
For the first time, we have introduced a new category: the Single Shot category. The award will focus on the image’s ability to convey a powerful message, embodying the theme in a single shot.
Single Shot Award: Fertile Solidarity. The theme for this new Single Shot section aims to be a hymn to solidarity that generates future progress. The spirit of togetherness is realized through actions which bring and support the progress of our entire society.
We perceive solidarity as an act of growth that stimulates, builds and inspires change. We are looking for images that represent this perspective in a creative way: this could be from the many activities carried out by humanitarian associations, to the personal relationships among people, from treatment and pain relief to the sense of belonging to the great World community. Share your vision of Fertile Solidarity with us. The work will be represented in a single shot.
The following awards will be assigned: First prize 800 Euros gross cash; Second prize 500 Euros gross cash; Third prize 400 Euros gross cash.
