‘Elegance is an attitude’
This year marks the third iteration of the "Longines Photocontest," with "Elegance" as its theme, echoing the brand's message, ‘Elegance is an attitude.’ There are no restrictions on technical skill or subject matter. Submissions are invited for photographs that capture moments of "elegance" as perceived by the entrant, whether it be horse racing (horses), people, animals, or nature, all supported by Longines. The contest features two categories: "Single Photo" and "Photo Series" (a set of three horizontally arranged photos). The option to submit a photo series allows for broader creative expression.
