Macau 2022 – Re-awakening

Macau CLOSER is proud to announce the winners of the Macau 2022 – ReAwakening Photography Competition.

 

2022 was another mixed year for the city with a seemingly a positive start, followed by a tough and uncertain summer, and another sudden and widespread shutdown at Christmas.   Despite the challenges, throughout the year, a number of major events and public celebrations were able to take place, bringing a sense of hope and joy to all, and indeed the beginning of 2023 has seen the city spring back to life in a vibrant way.  

 

The theme of the Macau CLOSER Photography Competition ‘Reawakening’ reflects the optimism and encouragement these events have brought to the city, as we strive for a return to more prosperous and successful days ahead. 

 

This competition invited Macau-based photographers to submit some of their best photos taken any time throughout 2022 at any major event or public activity – sporting, entertainment, cultural or others – to be considered by a jury of experts and to be in the running to win great cash prizes. 

 

Entrants were asked to present an image of the city that symbolized or reflected the theme of the competition, as they viewed it. The competition was open to both professional and amateur photographers. 

 

Congratulations to all our winners and thank you to all the contestants!  We are looking forward to a bigger and better competition later this year!
