You like photography and LEGOs: enter the contest organized by flickr and LEGO

If you know how to use a camera (or a smartphone) and you are capable of a little creativity, know that you have until November 1 to participate in the LEGO Build and Capture Photo Contest 2021 organized by flickr in partnership with LEGO.

I could have told you about this competition earlier, but I had decided to wait to check if the operation was not going to be invaded by professionals of the shooting and the retouching who will not give any chance to the amateurs. . It is somewhat the case, but the 1900 photos already in the running to try to win one of the lots of LEGO products in play are not all works of art, far from it, and I think those who will make a effort will eventually have their chances. However, it will be necessary to put the package to hope to impress the jury and the tablecloth of the granny table will not be enough. The editing seems to me definitely authorized, in any case some participants have a heavy hand on the filters and other visual effects.

If you want to give it a go, know that you can post up to three shots or use photos that you uploaded to your flickr account, but only if these creations were added after January 1, 2020 regardless of the date. of the shot itself. This rule breaks the spontaneity of the contest a bit and you will no doubt see photos that you have already noticed while browsing different galleries, but that's how it is.

It is LEGO which provides the endowment and it is exclusively made up of the products of the LEGO ART range: Six winners will be designated, two of them will receive a set of four copies of the set 31197 Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe (i.e. 4 x 119.99 €), the next two will receive a set of three copies of the set 31199 Marvel Studios Iron Man (i.e. 3 x 119.99 €) and the last two will receive a set of three copies of the set 31200 Star Wars The Sith (i.e. 3 x 119.99 €). Each of the winners will therefore be able to assemble the variants combining several copies of the product offered in these boxes.

Read well settlement of the transaction et the dedicated FAQ the contest before you start: this contest is reserved for adults who have a flickr account on which to publish their creations, you must upload your three photos to your gallery then add them to the group dedicated to the contest, do not try to post photos that do not belong to you, do not play with fire by regularly deleting your photos to put them back online and go back to the top of the photo pool and there is no question of a public vote. A panel of judges will decide the outcome of the competition. Good luck to those who decide to give it a go, come back and tell us if you won.
