MIIRA Mobile Photography & Art Competition – Deadline Approaching!
Do you know that you still have 10 days to submit your images to the second edition of MIRA Mobile Prize?
The competition, without fees attached, aims to choose the best mobile photograph (image captured and edited by mobile devices) under the theme “Streets of the World”.
To enter this competition, all you need to do is submit up to three images via email to miraprize@espacomira.net picturing streets of any town or city in the world.
A jury of eight personalities (including myself) of different nationalities, with recognized merit in mobile photography and the visual arts, will elect on the 18th July 2015 the shortlist of 50 works and the respective winner. The gallery MIRA Forum (Porto, PT) will launch on 18th April 2015 the group exhibition with the selected images.
The overall winner will receive a week in Porto (six days, five nights, including accommodation and food) and a return trip from any European capital.
