About
Organizers are looking for original, imaginative and technically well-executed images that explore the theme in an exciting way. Included, there is a table outlining the themes for each round, plus the closing dates and the issues in which the results will appear. In the first issue and online every month will be published a brief explaining the criteria for that round.
