The judging for the four trophies will be held online from October 4 to 10, 2026.
The jury’s decision is final and binding.
The acceptance of the works and the awarding of prizes will be at the sole discretion of the jury and will be final.
The jury’s deliberations will be conducted remotely. The judges will use color-calibrated monitors, and the images will not be enlarged or reduced beyond their original resolution. The images will be displayed at 100% of their original resolution, as provided by the author.
The EXIF data will be available to the judges throughout the judging process.
A competitor’s images will not be presented to the judges consecutively. The images will be distributed in the same order as submitted by the participant.
For the initial voting, each judge will use the HPCM (Hiho Photo Contest
Manager) program for managing photography contests, provided by HIHO srl.
Each juror will rate each photograph from 3 to 9 according to their preference.
A rating of 3 will be given to works that are off-topic, 4 and 5 to works that they consider not to
accept, 6 and 7 to works that they consider to be acceptable, and 8 and 9 will be given to works that the juror intends to nominate for a prize.
Since each jury is composed of three members, we will have a minimum rating of 9 and a maximum rating of 27.
The final phase of the jury’s work, i.e., evaluating the photos and awarding the prizes, will always take place remotely but with the jurors connected simultaneously via the ZOOM platform.
The acceptance rate will not be more than 30%
