Asia Photographers Union (APU) presents Asia Photo Festival 2021
This festival brings together photographers from all over the world to showcase and share their art. It is a platform for major photographic associations to promote their programmes and the work of their members.
** Featured Seminars **
Seminars from PSA, FIAP and GPU give visitors opportunities to know more about the activities of these organisations.
** Tales from the World **
Covid-19 may have drastically restricted Asia from showing off its exceptional beauty. But in “Tales from the World” its love affair with travellers is kept alive with photos from the work of major photography associations in the world.
** One Shot **
“One Shot” showcases the talent of more than 300 photographers who have captured images of their home countries.
** APU Member Showcase **
This section highlights the portfolios of APU members.
** Asialogue **
Presented in various documentary video formats, Asialogue takes viewers to Cyprus, Israel, Afghanistan and India to Indonesia, East Timor, China and Japan to show off everything Asia.
** Degree/Master in Photography **
Honing the skills of a professional photography is best acquired in an institution of higher learning. This section offers information on how to pursue a degree and masters in photography from England’s Falmouth University, which offers some of the best programmes in the world.
** Golden Dragon Photo Awards 2021 **
A presentation of the APU, the Golden Dragon Photo Awards honours the best of the best. All Gold medal contenders from the Asia Super 12 Circuit (www.as12c.com) are judged at the end of the year and winners are the Gold of Gold Standards.
******** ********************************************
** The Asia Photo Festival 2021 APU Member Showcase Gallery. **
APU Photographers from all over the world submitted their portfolios of photographs taken in their respective countries. The theme for this year is “Home” as the Covid-19 pandemic prevented photographers the freedom to unrestricted travel. This has pushed them to continue to discover the art in their home countries.
Enjoy and celebrate the masterpieces of all our photographers.
******** *************************************
** Asia Photo Festival 2021 presents to you the ‘ONE SHOT” Gallery. **
Photographers are challenged to submit a single shot that best define their country. As with the “APU Member Showcase Gallery” the theme here is also Home because of Covid-19.
The top 40 winners will be decided on the highest number of LIKES their photographs are able to generate from 10th to 24th October 2021. Each of the 40 winners will be presented with the “人气” popularity gold medal award.
