WASTE TO PHOTO: Submission deadline August 31st
We are still accepting pictures for the second edition of the Sardinia Photo Contest!
WASTE to PHOTO is a photography competition with the specific aim of recreating a scenario representing the global situation with regard to waste and landfill.
The most significant shots will be used to illustrate the differences, the contradictions, the difficulties, progresses, and more besides, encountered by this complicated issue in a series of contexts throughout the world, ranging from the developing countries to the more industrialised nations.
A photography exhibition will be set up using the best shots selected by the Organising Committee. The winning photo will be declared and prize awarded during the Symposium Gala Dinner on October 6th.
The 1st prize winner will receive a gift voucher with a value of € 300 on the official Nikon Store.
