The 7th China (Hunan) International Mineral & Gem Expo (CMGE) will be opened soon. On May 11, the reporter learned from the Preparatory Committee of the CMGE that the "2nd Global Mineral Crystal Photography Contest - Mobile Phone Microphotography", had begun to solicit contributions. As one of the thematic activities of the 7th CMGE, photographic groups, global photographers and enthusiasts from all over the world could take and send selected works to participate in the contest. The solicitation deadline will be July 8, 2019.

"After the first Contest, we received feedback from many mineral enthusiasts and they generally believed that professional mineral photography was too difficult for most people, which need to meet a lot of conditions, so that many enthusiasts could not participate directly." According to the staff of the Preparatory Committee, the "2nd Global Mineral Crystal Photography Contest -Mobile Phone Microphotography" is for all the people. As long as you take the mobile phone to shoot the specified material, you can participate in the Contest, and have the opportunity to interact with the organizer, and eventually get a specific prize.

According to reports, the works must focus on the theme of "mineral crystals" and use mobile phone as a photographic tool to show the beauty of "mineral crystals", the understanding of "mineral crystals" by people from all walks of life and the relationship between mineral crystals and human beings. You can register by following the public account "China (Hunan) International Mineral & Gem Expo SC".
In this contest, there are one gold award, two silver awards, three bronze awards, one highest popularity award and five excellent awards, among which the gold award winner will receive a prize of 10,000 yuan. The winning works will be published on August 16, 2019.

The Global International Mineral Crystal Photography Contest is a professional and international photography event organized by the China (Hunan) International Mineral & Gem Expo with the theme of mineral crystal specimens, which is an important event of the Expo and a new cultural card for Chenzhou to strive to build the capital of mineral crystals.
