PowderGuide photo competition 2017 | Photo of the week

Upload your best snow sports-related photos and win prizes, fame and glory!

by PowderGuide 01/27/2017
Winter has now arrived in most of the Alps and we are once again organizing a photo competition this year, in which not only a photo of the week will be chosen every week, but there will also be three main prizes at the end!

How does the competition work?

To take part, you need to upload your photo(s) to the PowderGuide photo feature. Pictures uploaded between 0:00 on Monday and 23:59 on Sunday will be valid for the corresponding week. Each participant can upload as many photos per week as he or she wants.

The photo of the week will then be chosen in the PowderGuide Forum on the Monday following the submission week.

The last review week is the week from March 20 to 26, 2017

The prizes

Each week, the selected photo of the week will receive PowderGuide goodies, such as the popular drinking bottles, books from the PowderGuide range or the new PowderGuide ski straps. What exactly there is each week will be announced in the forum thread. We will strive for variety and also make sure that no one gets the same prize more than once.

In addition, three main winners will be chosen from all the weekly winners by public vote in the PowderGuide forum, who will receive the following prizes:

  • 1st place: The winner will be invited to the mountains for a weekend at the legendary PowderGuide final meeting (April 1-2, 2017). In addition, a Bergzeit.de voucher for €100 (redeemable on non-discounted items) and one of the new PowderGuide thermos flasks (not yet available in stores!)

  • 2nd place: The new PowderGuide thermos flask and one of the new PowderGuide Coffee Cups

  • 3rd place: A PowderGuide drinking bottle and a PowderGuide Party Cup

How is the rating done?

The "Photo of the Week" is selected every week by the PowderGuide editorial team. The overall ranking is determined by the number of weekly ratings won; in the event of a tie, a vote among the members of the PowderGuide editorial team decides.

Criteria for the image rating: The photographic quality of the image is the main criterion for the rating. This means that sharp and cleanly exposed (and possibly edited) images are required, image composition, image statement and reference to winter and winter sports are important and will be evaluated.
Current photos are preferred, but topicality is not a prerequisite.

Small print: Full-time photographers are excluded from participation. Part-time photographers will be judged more strictly than amateur photographers. The PG editorial team is excluded from participation. The same applies to legal action. By participating, the photographer agrees to grant PowderGuide the non-exclusive rights of use for editorial use as part of the photo contest, as well as for the PowderGuide Facebook and Instagram account.
