With over 5,200 images received from 40 countries, 615 images passed the first screening and were entered into the second screening. The below displayed 80 images will be featured in the book to be published.
(Images are posted only here right now; WonderPick Gallery is being redone and will be live shortly) First screening juried by the Editorial & Artistic Team of WPGA; second screening juried by Julio Hardy, managing director of WPGA
Participating Countries: Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Korea, Lithuania, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zeland, Nigeria, Norway, Peru, Poland, Romania, Singapore, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, United States, Venezuela, and Vietnam
WPGA congratulates all finalists and contestants who so intensely have interpreted the theme Urban & Country Landscape: Life and Nature, People and Culture.
The diversity of images is so rich that this set of 80 images could be also called Planet Earth Today. Most of the other works submitted that passed the first screening deserve to be here also. There are cases of artists who submitted several images and all where exceptional; but according to the rules we were committed to select only 80 images, and on the other hand we have decided to include 80 artists with one image each instead of less artists with several images each.
