Virtual Photography Contest Rules
Our Virtual Photographer and Video Editor, Zark was tasked with coming up with the themes for the contest. He chose RED, SHADOWS and DUEL and this is what he had to say.
"I picked them to be the most open-ended as possible, meaning that it's very open to interpretation, literally and figuratively."
"For example, with Shadows, one might enter a photo of Nehal because she can be interpreted as Basim's shadow, the past self that he's rejecting but ultimately accepts."
Please read these rules carefully.
