"The Photography Festival of Firoozeh" is an event that photographers from all over the country can send their applications to get officially authorized to join. During the days of the competition, these photographers gather in this specific city and start to explore the city to shoot suitable photos for the competition. Each event has its own goals and rubrics that are distinct from previous events. I had the opportunity to get accepted for the 7th Photography Festival of Firoozeh, Tabriz, Iran.
One of my artworks has been selected as the top artwork in the 7th National Photography Festival of Firoozeh, in the "Modern Cityscapes" section. It depicts a new huge building named as WTC (World Trade Complex) beside the surrounding area with normal houses.
According to the Wikipedia:
"The Tabriz World Trade Center (Persian: مرکز تجارت جهانی تبریز, Markaz-e Tejārat-e Jahāni), is the tallest structure in Tabriz, Iranian Azerbaijan. The building is a 37-story building with a height of 152 m."
All in all, this competition was a great opportunity to meet and befriend many great photographers from all over the country. According to the news, the Firoozeh event will become an international event from the next year.
