Qatar National Library Launches Photography Competition: #QNLThroughMyLens
Are you a photography enthusiast living in Qatar? Do you have a keen eye for capturing the beauty of architectural design? If so, the Qatar National Library (QNL) has an exciting opportunity for you! From August 1-15, QNL will be hosting a photography competition focused on showcasing the stunning aesthetics of the library’s engineering and design.
Participants in the competition must be residents of Qatar with a valid Qatar ID, and must be 18 years and above. Each participant can submit up to four photographs that highlight different aspects of the library’s architecture. Whether you choose to capture the external view or the internal courtyards, the key is to showcase the unique and creative perspective you bring to the table.
When it comes to the technical aspects of the competition, there are a few guidelines to keep in mind. The photographs must be original and taken by the participant at QNL. Photos generated by artificial intelligence (AI) are not permitted. Additionally, the images must be of high-quality and high-resolution to allow for editing or color-grading enhancements. There are no restrictions on the type of device used to capture the photos, so feel free to use your phone or a professional camera.
To enter the competition, participants must publish their photos as a new post on Instagram between August 1-15. The Instagram post must include the hashtag #QNLThroughMyLens to be considered a valid entry. Profiles must be set to public to view the entries. The judging criteria will focus on the unique perspectives and creativity in composition, as well as the quality of the photo in terms of focus, lighting, and exposure.
The winner of the competition will receive an iPhone 14 Pro, a prize that any photography enthusiast would be thrilled to win. The announcement of the winner will take place on August 18, which also happens to be World Photography Day. The winning photos will be featured on QNL’s social media channels, giving the photographer well-deserved recognition for their talent.
By entering the competition, participants agree to grant QNL the right to use the submitted photos for promotional purposes, with full credit given to the photographer. This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your photography skills, gain exposure, and potentially win a valuable prize.
