CALENDAR

Registration until February 4, 2024, at 29:59 (WET).
Between the 7th and the 12th of February 2024, voting will begin for +/-30 days.
Days later, at the end of voting, the winners are presented.

Does this mean that voting can be done when all participants have not submitted their work?
February 4 is the last date to submit, assuming someone submits on that date, and voting to select the winner can start before February 4, right?

I made a small adjustment to the Drawing category.

CATEGORIES
There may be 3 categories in competition:

Drawing: A handmade drawing, in charcoal, Indian ink, or other type of material. It can also include digital works, made in Photoshop (or equivalent), as long as they are created by the user themselves.
Photography: Photograph, preferably taken by the person himself (or clearly identified the author of it).
AI Image: Artistic work developed using AI tools

Users who prefer to make their drawing directly on the computer - Art Digital, can also apply in this category. It is then up to users who vote to choose what they think is best/like best.

We are waiting for your work. Good participation for everyone.

Just wondering why its called "Image of the Year 2023"?

I mean if it's "Image of 2023" then should it not be selected from the images which are already posted in 2023?

Well, that could be an option, but it would be tricky to compile all these images. The idea is for each person to be able to choose an image that represents the year 2023 for them. Hence the name.

But, your idea is also interesting. Maybe I'll do something in the future with that idea. Wink

Alright, since people are worried about their privacy and whatnot, here are some tips:

Once you take a picture, no matter if it has meta data or not, here are the methods used to geo-locate you from a picture:

Natural landmarks, trees, plants, mountains, sky, stars, clouds, angle of sun rays, color of soil, rocks etc.
Buildings, streets, logos etc.

Those are outdoors, for indoors :

Paintings, position of light bulbs, door size, windows size and position, wall size, what kind of materials used, furniture, type of your clothing, kitchenware, home appliances etc.

From all of the above, they can locate you, so quit being paranoid, the people you are running or hiding from, those you are afraid of, already know everything about you. I only know one true master of incognito, aka satoshi, the rest of us are more like jokes for the deep state cabal. 😉

The ways they can use to identify you online, is beyond your understanding, lol btw, nice job on the service sir josue the joker.

I really hope you guys realize when you take a picture on your phone, your location is also saved, and when you upload that image, all the intel about you is also uploaded. 😉

All metadata is deleted whenever an image is uploaded to TalkImg.

You just excluded those who value privacy from participating because no one is giving you a contact/house address for delivery. If you wish to give back to the community, converting printing and shipping costs into BTC prizes will save you time and money.

I added the following note to the award given:

Quote from: joker Jose

The three winning images will be printed on canvas and offered to the winners. It will be a screen, containing the 3 winning images, with enough spacing so that 3 separate frames can be assembled. The minimum screen size will be 50x50cm.
I recommend that each user keeps a copy of the image in high resolution (if possible), so that in case they win, the screen print is of high quality.

I may drop some images just for fun, but if I ever win, please send them to Mars.

Of course! I have been a photographer for almost 10 years Tongue

I don't really have a problem with any of my metadata being saved, I am used to it. Nevertheless, I have trimmed out all the data I wanted to remove.

To be honest, most of the time I require my metadata to be uploaded to claim ownership. Of course that's not the case here.

I rather die on my feet than to live on my knees

I may try to participate but most likely my image (or images) won't be allowed due to the political nature of their content!
I will still send candidates to the contest and if any of them is accepted, I'll enter the contest with that one!

The first one I'll try to use is the following:

IA IMAGE

The Jewift | N/A | N / A

This is likely an AI generated image but I have no idea who is the author. I took it from a Telegram channel.
Note: The title is mine, though.

With the last events from the Middle-East, I just can't forget that this is probably the most shocking event of the year for me!

PHOTOGRAPHY

Brompton Rd, London | Sony A6000 & SIGMA 30MM F1.4 DC | 1/120s @ f/8

Obviously I am the photographer, so the picture is mine.

Good luck to everyone

Umm, sir josue the joker, there is no moneyz involved? If not then I'll just pass. Typical money grabbing mindset. Lol

The awards here could be given to oneself by ourself, an award is something that is unique which can not be reproduced or which would have no value if awarded by someone else, for example, it would be meaningless if the Cannes were to award nominees with Oscar, etc.

I admire your perseverance, a lone shill, shilling for your own project. 😂
