After drinking an early morning sunday coffee I went over my mails and saw some congratulations that I`m one of the Finalists in the World Photography Awards Cannes 2008. Upsssss……. I nearly ‘forgot’ that I entered this contest with 2 Images last october and now I´m one of 7 Finalists in the Amateur Photography Category ‘Fashion’….

Check the final Shortlist in the category FASHION

This Image from Marseille made it into to the Finalist Shortlist in the Category Fashion:

It was chosen out of 25,934 entries from an international professional Jury. The Honorary Board will then go on to choose the category winners as well as the overall winners, all of which will be announced in April 2008.

The Awards will be celebrated in Cannes, France from 21st to 25th April 2008 with a series of events and photographic exhibitions, culminating in a VIP Gala Evening and Awards Presentation on 24th April.
