The winners of the Photo Contest "Summer, sun, your photos"

as part of the FOTOTAGE

The Photo Contest of the Fototage was all about summer, sun, your photos. A theme that brings with it a lot of room for interpretation and individuality.

You have been photographically active during this time or have picked out already existing pictures again to put them under the microscope once more. The decision was not easy for our jury, there were special and creative entries and we tried to pick out the best. These are the winners of our contest!

Here again the respective tasks:

Go ahead and complete the task of our Photo Contest. The pictures do not necessarily have to be taken now (that means you can also send in already existing pictures), but try to take it as an incentive to become photographically active now in this great weather!

Topic: Summer, sun, your photos

What are your most beautiful sunny sides? Get creative and show us what summer means to you: no matter if it's a place, a feeling, a person or a memory. Summer has many facets, show us your very personal!

Winning picture Photo ContestPeter Wunderlich

Winning picture: Selfie with a difference!

The winning picture was taken in a dandelion field in spring. Peter Wunderlich, the creator of this image, likes to try out abstract drone photos. He discovered this meadow in the process, which didn't look bad, but he felt it lacked some contrast. Therefore, his wife had to be in the picture. It is virtually a different kind of selfie.
Taken near Saalfeld in Thuringia. Normally he takes pictures with a reflex camera. With the drone (Mavic Air), however, completely new perspectives arise.

We say congratulations on this well-deserved first place!

Nils Frey

Place 2: Go with plane A

The picture of Nils Frey is actually quite simple: "I took it during my first vacation in August in Ibiza after Corona. I went near the beach to take some pictures for myself and to capture the life there. I walked between hotels and the path was accompanied by palm trees, so automatically my view went up. Thereupon I saw that airplanes were flying over me again and again and intuitively had the idea to connect the palm trees and airplanes. So I waited a bit for the plane to fit into the picture (it wasn't the first one directly and I had to look a bit where a good position is). After a little adjustment and some patience it finally fit. Nils works full-time in the hotel industry, but has been photographing for 5 years in different areas (people, street photography, landscape, etc.). He loves to document his travels photographically and capture people. He wants to show, the contrast of big cities and the calmness of landscapes and take the viewers for a short moment into the situation with his pictures.

He has definitely succeeded with this picture!

  • Outstanding optics in pocket format

3rd place: At the Sea of Azov

Julius Nieweler took this impressive picture, which won the third place of our photo contest!
"The picture was taken last summer in the eastern Ukrainian city of Mariupol. At that time, the contact line of the then frozen conflict between Russia and Ukraine was located about 10 km from the large city. Peace prevailed in Mariupol. Due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February, the picture has acquired a new meaning for me: it fills me with deep sadness and longing for that very day. Because the picture shows a scene on the beach of the Azov Sea, as it can probably no longer exist in this form for the time being in Mariupol. "
