Take note: Photo Competition

Recently I posted an entry about this very original competition. A reader writes:

Dear Tom,

As a representative of Rockwool Poland – the contest’s organizer – I’d like to thank you for sharing your thoughts on the idea of our photography contest. We believe this idea will be an exciting challenge for artists, who are tired of romantic sunsets.

We’re glad to hear that our contest drew your attention. It means that you consider taking part in it. This is precisely our objective – to bring art to a new level.

Our previous projects, such as a satirical drawing contest, proved that the same subject matter may be shown in a funny & light-hearted way. The results turned out to be a great success.

This year we’d like to see if photographers can fire their imagination in a similar wide range of ideas.

It may seem easy to ridicule the idea (believe me, we are the first to laugh at it), but what we offer is a serious opportunity for real artists to show their photographic talents. And all are invited. We can’t wait to see your creativity.

You heard her. Click here to find out how you can participate. However, you may have to do some translation. Unless there's an English version that I'm not seeing. How about it, Daria?

The English press release and app (with rules) are now linked at the bottom of the contest announcement page.

It's important to note that, as I read the rules, entrants grant nearly unlimited rights, for an indefinite period of time (section IV.3.a-j). I searched in vain for a reversion clause; one that would return the rights to non-winners at some point after the end of the contest.
