Calling all photographers! Canon PhotoMarathon Malaysia 2011 will be happening on the 15th of October 2011 for the 9th consecutive year! Slated to be the largest photo competition, Canon PhotoMarathon 2011 will kick off this September in seven countries:
• India
• Indonesia
• Malaysia
• Singapore
• Vietnam
• Hong Kong
• Taiwan
Pit your creativity, skill, and endurance level against other participants to create the ultimate photographic masterpiece (and no, we don’t mean Instagram-style photos or camwhoring!) and you might just stand a chance to walk away with an all-expense paid photo trip to Tasmania, Australia.
Oh, may we add that you will also be walking away with hard cold RM10,000 cash!
Yes. Just look at, I mean, listen to Henry Golding.
All you have to do is interpret specific themes that will be assigned to you, do them well, and be rewarded. The panel of esteemed judges that you would have to impress are none other than:
1. Zainal Abdul Halim (Reuter photojournalist)
2. Peter Tan (awarded and certified Master Photographer by the prestigious Master Photographers Association UK)
3. Din Arshad
4. Harry Woo
5. Ng Kok Leong (Photo Editor of The Star Publications)
6. Raj Kumar (Photo Editor of the Sun Media Publication Group)
7. Syed Agil Syed Jaafar (Chief Photographerof the Utusan Group)
The best part of all is that Canon Marketing (Malaysia) pledged partnership with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation this year to donate all proceeds from the registration fees towards supporting their research and awareness programs.
Compete for a good cause, flaunt your photography skills, and maybe win a holiday plus all that cash? Why not? It’s a win-win situation. Uh. All you have to do is win, of course.
Registrations will close on the 30th of September 2011. So register online today, right now, here!
