스미소니언 매거진 2012 사진 콘테스트(Smithsonian Magazine's 2012 Photo Contest)

세계 100개국 이상에서 수십만명의 사진작가들이 참가하는 스미소니언 매거진의 사진 경연대회가 현재 진행되고 있습니다.사진작가들이 작년에 촬영한 사진들을 가지고 올해 출품하여 발표하게 되는데요. 5개 부분 (The Natural World, Travel, People, Americana, Altered Images)에서 각각 10개 작품이 후보작으로 선정되어 현재 50개의 작품이 최종 후보작으로 올라와 있습니다. 이곳에서 투표에 참가 할 수 있는데요. 정말 멋진 작품들이 많습니다. 멋지고 아름다운 사진을 보면 부러움과 함께 피사체를 관찰하는 작가의 시각적 안목에 늘 놀라움을 감출 수 없습니다. 3월 29일까지 투표를 할 수 있는데 과연 어느 작품이 최종 우승이 될지가 궁금하네요. 여러분서도 아래 작품을 감상 하시면서 어떤 작품이 가장 와 닿는지 체크하여 보십시요...^^
