The Camera-Contest
You go out and search with your digital camera for the proper motifs for the given topics. The proper order of the topics has to be maintained and
editing of the images is not allowed.
Back to the roots! The primary concern is the single picture. It is obvious that you can photograph a series - nevertheless it does not have any influence on the valuation.
You can apply every filter or technical feature your camera supports PRIOR pressing the trigger, but not afterwards.
You may give free rein to your imagination but consider, that competing with a team is not allowed - everyone should have the same preconditions. Accompanying persons which do not appear on more than two images are not considered as a team.
- 12 topics in 12 hours in the given sequence
- no manipulation of images after exposure
- no Teams
