The countdown has started.
Before 2021 comes to a close, the United Arab Emirates will celebrate 50 years since its unification. And we are celebrating!
We’re calling all photographers who have made the UAE home, whether briefly or long-term, to enter our competition by submitting a photograph taken in the UAE that is a representation of your experience in it.
It could be an archival photograph from your grandparent’s shoebox, or a professionally-manipulated artistic image you created – we want it all.
The winning photographs will be featured in an exclusive, coffee-table book celebrating the 50th national day, which will be launched in November 2021.
Join us in commemorating this great milestone in the history of this great country!
