Website summary:
"Visuals are processed 60,000 times faster than text by the human brain and 90% of information transmitted to the brain is visual" -3M.
There is always more than one way to tell a story, and different mediums convey stories differently. This is a celebration of the visual story, through imagery and pictures. Show us your story and let your narrative speak through your chosen visual medium. Tell us a story about the expansive world of wine: the people, the places, the art, culture, history.
Entries should convey a comprehensive story, not just random images, and help to explain an idea or relate a complete tale of people, places, or things. Let your audience see the beauty of wine through your eyes.
