Broaden the view - a theme suggestion
Martin Sammtleben 2010-Jul-02 22:17:00
I've now been through most of the current submissions and have seen a
lot of great places.
However one thing that has always struck me in every event, is that
large areas of the globe are regularly underrepresented or not
represented at all.
Most of North America and Europe are very well-covered, but things
start to thin out towards the east and there are ever so few taken in
South America and Africa and nothing in the north of Russia as far as
I can see.
I would appreciate to also see some more remote locations.
So, I'm going to suggest a theme "My Holiday Far Away" to encourage
people to capture a really remote place on their next trip.
I realize that this can not easily be slotted into the usual shooting
time frame, but it could perhaps be made the annual "Best of..."
event one one occasion.
Anyway, it's just a thought.
