Hello, dear friends, colleagues! And again with you @anri

I am pleased to inform you about the launch of an annual photo competition within the Serey platform.

It’s called “Beauty!” This is a new season of the competition; last year the participants and readers of Serey really liked it.

In the lens - everything that takes your breath away: the splendor of nature, the silhouettes of the city, the colors of the sky, an exquisite bouquet, the smile of a child, a worn key, threads of rain, night streets or a random abstraction.

You have the opportunity to share your vision of beauty, what touches you to the core and fascinates you. What can you say with complete confidence: “Beauty!”

Our competition will also have a nomination for poets who love to capture beautiful moments with their gadgets - “Photo Poetry”. It involves a complete work of a photograph and a poem, which complement each other. In this nomination, original poems and original photographs are accepted for the competition. Go for it, friends. A wonderful opportunity to share your creativity, poetry and photography.
There will be wonderful nominations for participants in the Beauty Photo Contest. Prize for the most original photo frame. Prize of sympathy of the panel of judges. Audience Award. Prize from the competition organizer

New season launches October 10, 2023.

In order to participate in this event, you do not have to be a professional photographer or have special equipment. You can take pictures using smartphones, tablets, etc.

The main thing is that your photographs are aesthetic and reflect the beauty of the world.

We invite you to take part in the new season of our Photo Contest and share the Beauty!
