Published the 16th of July 2025

 

'Windmills and wind turbines'
A majestic view of beautiful green hills with wind turbines or an ancient windmill by sunset ... there is a large variety of windmills to photograph, and a wide variety of locations. Enjoy the best submissions...

The winners with the most votes are: 
1st place : Irene Wu 
2nd place : Giuseppe Satriani
3rd place : Martin Kucera AFIAP AZSF

Congratulations to the winners and honourable mentions and thanks to all the participants in the contest 'Windmills and wind turbines' 

 


The currently running theme is 'When photography and poetry come together'
Photography and poetry have a long-standing connection. When they come together, they allow the work to take on a whole new meaning. It’s more than a caption or an explanation, its a revelation. A true photopoem adds depth and context to the photo while remaining open to interpretation—even extending an invitation to imaginative engagement.


This contest will end on Sunday the the 27th of July at midnight.
The sooner you upload your submission the more chance you have to gather the most votes.

Good luck to all the participants.
