DODEKANISOS SEAWAYS Photo Competition titled Man, Nature, Culture in the Aegean
In an effort to expose the wealth of the Aegean Islands and at the same time to encourage amateur photographers, DODEKANISOS SEAWAYS announces the start of a photography competition titled ''Man, Nature, Culture in the Aegean'. The Aegean Islands are places of exquisite beauty. Many of them are well-known while others are hidden like valuable pearls. The aim of this competition is to encourage participants to discover them and capture them using their photographic lenses. Our islands deserve our help to make their beauties known throughout the world. Therefore we invite you to take part in our competition, to capture the beauties of our islands, and we, through our website, will share them with the rest of the world.
