Creativity

When we talk about creativity, we are near the origin of Awardize. Our community promotes creativity and it’s one of the basic values we have. If you have money, you can buy good equipment and quality, which gives you confidence and capacity. In real life creativity, the unique idea is not for sale. Of course you [...]
A Blue Globe in Space
Published on 2010-04-11 09:57:42
The global Awardize community photographs and enjoys the dissimilarities of both geographic and cultural diversity of the globe twenty four seven. One of the differences between Awardize and former photo award websites is Monthly Mission. Monthly Mission always involves surprises. We’ll give you a monthly photographing task, which is strictly or nicely delimited. The idea is to [...]
Independence of the Competition

Competition between participators needs to be fair. Our rules define in detail who owns pictures, how pictures are copyrighted, and the provisions concerning photo storage and gallery. Of course there are also judging criteria presented in the rules, which you should read carefully through. The independent judging is an inalienable matter for Awardize! If the [...]
Photo manipulation

Digital photos have been in use over 10 years. Advanced graphics editing programs, just like Adobe Photoshop, give us unlimited possibilities to edit photos.

You also might be thinking: “I am an amateur photographer, but still my skills are like professionals’ – I wonder which way it is?” Competition is a way to measure success and improvement. At first it is of help to set objectives, which you can achieve and aim [...]
The Power of Community
Published on 2010-01-06 14:14:20
An archived picture is always relevant, but its impact on us gradually peters out, if no-one can see it. This way the impact of the picture is latent and stays that way. What to do about it? If we can combine the two common phrases together (in practice): “A picture is worth a thousand words” [...]
Individual and picture
Published on 2009-12-29 13:20:20
Photographing is mostly done alone. A good attitude would be to imagine you had the only camera in the world, because then you look at every push and shot with respect just like you were creating the history of the world. You have the right to take a picture and the responsibility of the message [...]
Life Is a Miracle!
Published on 2009-12-22 19:24:35
Life on Earth is extremely improbable in general. However just like a planned miracle, our planet hums with multiform life. Fine-tuned nature’s constraints enable our perception of the organized matter and information. Awardize is a platform, where our society gathers evidence of billions of miracles. Our common photographing subjects cover a wide area from microcosm to [...]
