This year’s theme of the competition was “An ordinary or unusual day”, and the competition was held as part of the annual Travel and Emotions exhibition, where 52 photos from 19 countries were evaluated. The first prize won Danijel Koletić, director of the Apriori World agency, also known as the organizer of the international PRO PR conference.
The winner of the first prize, Danijel Koletić, pointed out: “This photo was taken in Prague, taken with a mobile phone, in my style – in motion.”
The organizer of the exhibition is the Fédération Internationale des Journalistes et Ecrivains du Tourisme (FIJET) Slovakia, an association of writers and journalists in tourism, which operates as an independent branch of the global association of the same name. In the explanation of the president of the jury, dr. sc. Mariano Pauer (ESPIAF), it was pointed out that the jury made a unanimous decision on awarding the first prize to this photo at first glance. It was emphasized that the value of the awarded photo lies not only in the technical and aesthetic performance, but also in the emotion that the author wants to convey with the photo.
