Color Confidence Launches ‘Inspired by Colour’ Photography Competition

Share

Earlier this month, Color Confidence launched an exciting new photography competition that will encourage people to experiment with colour in their every day lives.

The ‘Inspired by Colour’ competition is featured around a different photography theme each month and gives both amateur and professional photographers the chance to win great prizes from some of the industry’s leading manufacturers.

“Our exciting new photo competition is a great opportunity to give budding photographers great exposure and to encourage them to get creative with colour,” says Geoffrey Clements, Managing Director at Color Confidence.

Geoffrey Clements continues: “Colour management is at the forefront of all that we do here at Color Confidence. Using great value colour management solutions and equipment as prizes, will hopefully encourage more photographers to incorporate colour management into their workflow.”

The competition can be entered via the Color Confidence Facebook page. Throughout the month, the public will vote for their favourite image. The person with the most votes at the end of each month will win a great prize (minimum prize value £100).

Each winning image will be displayed on the Color Confidence website, in the monthly newsletter, on the social media sites, and featured in the Color Confidence Blog.

At the end of the year, the Color Confidence team will judge the 12 winning images to determine who will be crowned ‘Color Confidence Photographer of the Year 2016’.

The grand prize winner will receive a fantastic prize bundle made up of £1,000 worth of photography equipment from leading manufacturers such as X-Rite, NEC, ExpoImaging, BenQ and DxO software.

January’s theme is ‘Street Photography’. This month’s prize is an X-Rite i1Display Pro (worth £207 incl. VAT) – the ultimate solution for photographers that demand speed, options and flexibility to attain colour accuracy.

 For more information and to enter the competition, visit the ‘Photo Competition’ tab on the Color Confidence Facebook page. Mobile users can access the competition here.
