Aspiring photographers in the Maldives are asked to submit images capturing “spontaneous moments of happiness” for a new national competition being run on social media.
Organisers of the ‘life and smiles’ contest have said they are looking for images to be submitted from across the country in order to try and spread some happiness, not least in providing the participants with the chance to win luxury electronic goods.
Participants will be competing for prizes including top of the range camera equipment, a smart phone and a specialist photography course.
The prizes will be given to the three highest rated pictures decided through votes submitted by Facebook users.
All images must be submitted by July 14, with online public voting commencing the following day and running until July 31.
The event, which has been organised by the Allied Insurance Company of the Maldives and personal electronics supplier Reefside, can be entered through a facebook page set up exclusively for the event that can be accessed here.
