Varusteleka photography contest

Published 03.02.2014

Hello dumplings! It is time for the famous Varusteleka photography contest and we want your photos like nothing else. We pondered for many an hour or more in the search of the perfect theme and came up with "War & Love". Jolly good, eh?

The theme can be used in any which way but please note that should you violate Facebook's image rules with images grotesque, they will be censored and published at Alasin (http://alasin.varusteleka.fi).

Our honorable jury will rank the images arbitrarily by their accordance to the theme, idea and by technical aspect. The image should be a photograph, but brutal photoshopping and manipulation is OK.

We will publish the five best images that win a gift card to our shop and 15 images worth a citation by the 16th of April. After this, you get to vote your favorite by liking an image from the ones that get to the top 20. You get about a week to like the images, so stop snoozing by the fireplace, grandpas.
