So, you thought photography was a creative endeavour? Well, it turns out, if you want to compete there is a formula to hit.
There are people in the world whose job it is to tell you if you are doing photography right or wrong. How do they tell? See formula above. Do you agree? Is competitive photography even a valid concept?
Most important perhaps, are you now more inspired to push you art and craft further - or are you saddened at the formulisation of our beloved art?
All this and more is put to the test and Chris has used the rules to generate some "Award Winning" images 😀
