After an intense period of judging, the moment has come to present the winners and finalists of the Rovinj Photodays 2023 competition!<\/p> \n \n
Until March 5, 3,200 photographs by authors from<\/strong> 28<\/strong> countries of the world<\/strong> were submitted to this year’s contest. <\/p>
\n
\n This year, the judging was conducted by a six-member jury of prominent experts in their fields of activity:<\/p>
\n\r\n The jury had the task of selecting the finalists of the competition and among them the winner of the Grand Prix, i.e. the overall winner of the competition. In the judging process, they are given the autonomy to decide on the number and composition of the finalists, in order to ensure that the final exhibition of the finalists really represents the best of the submitted works. <\/p>

\n “This year’s competition of the Rovinj Photodays festival did not disappoint the expectations of the host. As in previous years, it recorded an increase in the number of applications <\/em>,<\/em> reaching the number of 3200 photos<\/em> !<\/em> In addition to a few faithful followers and already award-winning authors, there is a significantly larger number of new names among the applicants<\/em> ,<\/em> from countries outside the former Yugoslavia and the broader ring of Southeast Europe, and additionally,<\/em> the finalist<\/em> of<\/em> the<\/em> renowned Rotlicht festival in Vienna<\/em> ,<\/em> with which<\/em> the festival<\/em> recently entered into a partnership relationship<\/em> .<\/em> The wide range of applications from a total of 28 countries is certainly the result of the work of the jury members who responsibly encourage local photography communities to actively participate in international festivals and thus contribute to their visibility and placement. I believe <\/em>o<\/em> that this year’s<\/em> selection<\/em> of the jury<\/em> will<\/em> contribute to the further positioning of the Rovinj Photodays festival on the map of internationally relevant photo festivals.<\/em> – said<\/strong> Sabina Salamon<\/strong> , president<\/strong> of<\/strong> the<\/strong> jury<\/strong> .<\/strong><\/p>
