Hello to all photography lovers!
As you know, I love photography and contests ^^ Almost every day I propose a speed-game with the application @steepshot and you are every time more to join us =). After the success of the MACRO-PHOTO CONTEST, the SUNSET PHOTO CONTEST and HE BEST B&W URBAN PHOTOGRAPHY, I decided to make a new one:
🖼 THE BEST PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST!!! 🖼
A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most successfully engage the subject with the viewer.

This is the Wikipedia definition. But for this contest I accept only photographs. Maybe another time I'll do a contest with drawing, painting or sculpture.
No need for specific material for this contest, it is accessible to all because even with a smartphone it is possible to have a beautiful photo portrait.
📷 You need to have is the agreement of the person photographed to publish his image.
📷 The photograph can be in black and white or in color.
📷 There are no age, gender or ethnic origin.
📷 No nude photography.
In my last contest again, there were dishonest participants who used pictures of other people. I do not tolerate this kind of behavior! The philosophy of this platform is based on quality and authenticity, not copy. That's why I have to put in place strict rules to avoid cheating. I let you discover the rules of this contest my Steemians friends.
