Canon will organize the annual “Canon PhotoMarathon Vietnam″ photo contest next month, which, as the name suggests, will give competitors three themes in quick succession for completion within a given time frame.
The competition, to be held in Hanoi on September 11 and Ho Chi Minh City the next day, is open to all photographers living in Vietnam.
Each participant will be given three separate themes to base their photos on. They will get three hours to complete each, return to the contest location with their pictures, and download them on to the server before getting the next one.
The work will be judged on criteria like creativity in theme interpretation, use of colors and light/shadow, composition of photograph, and relevance to theme.
There will be one winner and two merit-prize winners in each theme.
The best contestant will get an overall grand prize of US$7,000.
Chu Duc Minh of Hanoi won the grand prize last year.
