The works submitted to the contest must be composed in 2020 and 2021 and should reflect people, society, landscapes and the process of building and protecting the country.
Photographers can submit their works in two categories of Realistic Photo and Conceptual Photo. Each photographer can send up to eight photos. Entries should be submitted in a JPG digital format, at a resolution of at least 300dpi, and size of no more than 4Mb.
