Asferico Photo Contest 2014 is open to amateur or professional photographers of any age or nationality and has the goal to show the unique side of Nature.

Categories

A – Landscape: Entries must capture scenes that are truly wild and awesome. They should convey a sense of wonder and widerness.

B – Underwater worlds: Entries must feature sea or freshwater life.

C – Mammals

D – Birds

E – Other animals

C – D – E Images must show memorable, unusual or striking behaviour. Portraits should capture the character or spirit of the subject and focus on it. The key here is striking originality.

F – Plants and fungi: This is the category for pictures that highlight the beauty, diversity and importance of all forms of plant life.

G – Composition and forms: Pictures in this category must illustrate natural subjects in abstract ways, and will be judged for their aesthetic value.

H – Man and nature: Positive or negative aspects of human interaction with nature
