“Positive Florence“
Florence september the 13th 2015
The Event will start in:
(partenza dal Leica Store Firenze)
Competition Philosophy
A day dedicated to photography on the streets of Florence, in which the city and the people that bring it to life are seen through the lens: a cultural event that merges love of photography and promotion of Florence. The marathon will take place in the city of Florence, within its geographical limits.
The Contest
Anyone can take part in the photo marathon as long as you have a digital camera capable of shooting RAW files (or equivalent such as NEF, CRW, CR2, MRW, RAF, SRW, DNG, etc.).
The theme may be expressed in three photos:
- 3 individual images – the three photos must portray unrelated subjects; the judging panel will decide based on the individual images.
- Photo story – the three photos must tell a “short story”; the judging panel will decide based on the project in its entirety.

Registration will be open between 9 and 10.30am on Sunday 13 September 2015 at LEICA STORE FIRENZE in vicolo dell’Oro 12R. The event begins directly after registration.
