About
Our seasonal photography contests are held to improve the quality of art. In each season, we choose different genres and you can participate in them.
Creating a work of art has at least two purposes. One is to satisfy the inner sense of the creator of the work and the other is to be seen. Every year, many exhibitions and competitions are held all over the world, and as photographers, every time we participate in one of these events, we present our inner sense and also compete with others. To know if we are close to our mental goal or not. The value of a work is not ultimately about winning, but it can guide us to be better.
