One question, how would they check for the photo's date and that it's "original work and previously unpublished"? There will be tons of entries and it'd be a major pain to check each and everyone.

oh i definetly want to join too!
but i am not in HK...

The contest has a restriction for Hong Kong residents only, which may mean a mere ID card and doesn't necessarily dictate that you have to be in Hong Kong now (ie. overseas student).

for skyline shots, i am sure there are skyscraper fans like us who can tell exact when was the pic taken.

oh god, how i wish i can join....right now i'm in overseas so don't think i can make it. But i wish the other hk contestants good luck & may the best pic wins!!

Only one pic ... o well, anyone going to join?? :p

Oh but I have to plan how to take the photos in HK first that suits the rules to send the photo to the competition. I don't think I can make it...I don't have any photos that suits this topic taken before...and i'll come back HK next year...

But hope the contestors have fun!

HKSkyline, are you entering, and/or any other Hong Kong resident here? If so, we'll help you to win, just submit your photo's here and we will help you judge which is the best so you can win the money!

I don't have any photos from the past year, though. The most recent were taken during SARS in late April 2003.
