Winners of Singer Seya Competition |
The top three photos are judged according to the number of 'likes'
that a photo receives on the Facebook page. Winners go on to win
valuable Samsung digital cameras (1st prize SDC-WB650, 2nd prize
SDC-SH100, 3rd prize SDC-ES9) that will aid them to develop their
passion for the craft.
The response from local amateur photographers has been overwhelming
and their submissions have been of a very high standard. The monthly
winners are announced on Facebook and they are requested to attend a
prize giving held every two months at the Singer Sri Lanka Head Office.
The prize giving for the October and November winners was held on
January 31. The winner of the October competition, Wijesundara, received
the highest recorded 'likes' on the Singer Sri Lanka Facebook page. The
winner for the month of November is Sampath Palliyaguruge.
The Singer Seya Competition began in October 2012 and will continue
until October 2013, at which point an exhibition will take place
displaying 120 of the best photographers posted Singer's Facebook fans.
The Competition was organized to create a platform for young and
upcoming amateur photographers. The themes that have been prescribed
since October are "general", "lifestyle" and "Christmas". The only
regulation for submitting a photo is that the photo cannot be edited or
conditioned.
"Friendship" is the theme for the of March. Participants who are
interested in entering the competition can join the fan page
www.facebook.com/SingerSL and simply upload a photograph inspired by
friendship. |
