More Open Than Ever<\/h3>\n
\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n

The open nature of MedFoto is reinforced this year with the launch of the new Popular category. <\/strong>This category, which replaces the previous Mobile division, not only accepts photographs taken with a mobile phone but also includes proposals made with other photographic devices, obtaining a jpeg or analog file. The contest thus becomes more accessible to all formats to reach all photography enthusiasts regardless of their level or preferences when shooting.<\/p>\n

\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n

The Popular category joins those already proposed by the contest: Landscape, Wildlife, Sports and Leisure, Sea Trades, Underwater, Conservation and Climate Change, and Photographic Story. MedFoto thus encompasses all aspects of the Mediterranean Sea under a common theme: The sea and the people.<\/p>\n

\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Candidates can submit up to 15 photographs distributed in any of the proposed divisions between April 1st and May 15th through the MedFoto website to compete for one of the contest’s awards.<\/p>\n

A Joint Initiative<\/h3>\n
\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n

MedFoto is an initiative born from the collaboration between Club N\u00e0utic l\u2019Escala and Fundaci\u00f3 Alive, aiming to highlight the fragile relationship between people and the sea, as well as to promote the natural values of the marine environment and encourage responsible behavior among all agents operating in the marine world and the general public. Through the collection and dissemination of visual material from the contest, MedFoto works to contribute to the knowledge and preservation of the marine environment.<\/p>\n

\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n
