Congratulations to the winners and honourable mentions and thanks to all the participants in the contest 'Windmills and wind turbines'

The currently running theme is 'When photography and poetry come together'
Photography and poetry have a long-standing connection. When they come together, they allow the work to take on a whole new meaning. It’s more than a caption or an explanation, its a revelation. A true photopoem adds depth and context to the photo while remaining open to interpretation—even extending an invitation to imaginative engagement.

This contest will end on Sunday the the 27th of July at midnight.
The sooner you upload your submission the more chance you have to gather the most votes.
