Festival Contest
Today's DAY
Today's DAY
Reflect the photographic signs of the 21st century in everyday life – the aim of this contest.
We encourage Amateur photographers
and professionals to become participants of the festival contest "Today's DAY" and send pictures that embody the state of modern society.
The development of civilization laid
in human life. From prehistoric times to the present
day level of civilization reached incredible heights. But nevertheless
and now there are things unchanged for the entire period of progress. This applies to both psychological and technological state.
It is no secret that the development of civilization, its benefits are aimed at human comfort. Society inevitably sacrifices knowledge for the sake of information, and comfort in turn negatively affects health. Religion is intertwined with politics, forbidden fruits have long ceased to be secret.
What it is - a modern society, what are the signs of the 21st century, especially in daily life? To reflect this photographically is the task of this competition. The contest photos can reflect the significant events of our time, which you witnessed - no matter within your yard or country - the symbols of modernity; types in portraits of contemporaries; temporary contrasts and everything that can create a portrait of today's society.
Send photographs to: fest@fotokrok.org

"Russia — the country not taken. Has anyone seen a decent picture of how people live in Anzhero-Sudzhensk? In Lipetsk? Orenburg? The photographer, who lives in the province, perceives this as a punishment of the Lord, not realizing that this happiness is giant (in our country everything is giant) territories , a lot of incredible stories and no competition! Russian photographers do not understand that Russia is an exotic country"/S. Maximishin/
He tells us stories. People who are hundreds and thousands of kilometers away from us. Places that we can only judge by the news in the Newspapers, on TV or on the Internet. Iraq, Afghanistan, India, Russia and Chechnya. The list of places where it was "close, closer" is endless.

It's all about feelings. Feelings and emotions as a result of memories and experiences.
The picture here is timeless. Without connection with a certain place, event, time; it is an image, allegory, metaphor, symbol, hieroglyph, code.
In his minimalism portrayed the whole world with its paradoxes, absurdity and chaos.
UKRAINE. This word automatically makes me analyze: what was before and what was, how is now and what will be in the future?

Photo essay on the monks Artemieva-Verkol'skogo Monastery. Arkhangelsk region
Photo essay on the monks Artemieva-Verkol'skogo Monasteries. Arkhangelsk region
There are no daily excursions and thousands of pilgrims. There are forty inhabitants in the monastery. Workers and monks. Everyone has a story behind them. Everyone has their own way to God.
Someone came here "by faith", realizing this step as a personal choice, someone brought "sorrow" and the tragic circumstances of life – imprisonment, dependence, loss of loved ones, lack of housing, work and the inability to find themselves in secular life.
Some come in "Fercolo" for a few months, someone's been living here years and received monastic tonsure.
The monastery, founded around 1635 on the site of the relics of St. Artemius, accepts all. This story is about people whose life path is not easy, about those who know firsthand what is need, gratitude and Faith.

THE FACE OF CREATIVITY
Exhibition of portrait photography of the famous Lithuanian photographer Algimantas Alexandravičius (Panevezys)
"Light unites people all over the world," says the master himself. – There are people who themselves are carriers of light. I had a great honor to touch, at least through the lens, such quantities as Bella Akhmadulina, Mikhail Ulyanov, Mikhail Kalashnikov, Igor Moiseev... I tried to catch their glow in the negative and transmit it through the photo, so that I could be happy myself and so that others could be in this Light." The exhibition presents 50 black and white photographs from different series: "Constellation of Russia", "Artists of Lithuania", "Masters of Lithuanian jazz", "Faces of art. Lithuania", "Lithuanian Theatergoers".
