About
This theme is dedicated to color portraits of women, where the focus is on conveying character and mood through natural or stylized images. We look for works where the color palette enhances the emotional impact of the frame rather than merely decorating it.
Pay attention to lighting quality, background handling, and compositional structure. The key is the moment when the model reveals her individuality. Avoid excessive retouching, preserving the realism of skin tones and details.
Accepted:
- Natural and studio color portraits of women (18+), where light and color work to reveal the subject's image
- Works with an emphasis on light and color that convey the model's character and individuality
- Shots featuring a person of the opposite sex, provided the woman remains the absolute semantic and visual focal point of the composition
Not accepted:
- Black and white, tinted, or monochrome works
- Portraits of men or children, as well as shots where the woman is not the main subject or gets lost in the surroundings
