The awards ceremony for the “Lagos é Natural” Digital Photography Contest will take place on the 24th of November, at the Hotel Tivoli Lagos, one of the sponsors of this initiative as part of the Blue Flag Campaign, which, every year, in the summer, the Municipality of Lagos carries out.
This year, 130 photographs were in the competition, in a total of 40 participants, which addressed the themes “Lakes is Natural”, “Caring for the Environment” and “Sustainable Tourism”.
The photos were voted on by a jury composed of representatives of local and regional public entities, sponsoring companies and amateur and professional photographers, and was chaired by an element of the municipal executive.
Due to the quality of the photos submitted to this edition of the competition, it was decided to award the two most voted works in each theme.
The winners of the competition will now receive their prizes in a ceremony that will take place on the 24th of November, starting at 15 pm, at the Hotel Tivoli Lagos.
