Young Ceramics Networks
YCN Photo Contests
From 2017 to 2024, YCN launched 6 Photo Contests.
All young ceramic researchers were invited to submit a microphotograph for the YCN photo contest and the winner picture selected by the jury was used to illustrate the "YCN-Ceramic Social Club" platforms on Social Medias (Facebook and LinkedIn).
Entering this competition is an opportunity to exhibit your skills in ceramic and/or microscopy !
Some rules of eligibility...
- Only one submission per person is allowed.
- The submission must include: a microphotograph of ceramics with a visible scale, a title (poetic titles are welcome) and a detailed caption of subject matter.
- The photo cannot be edited - only the colors can be modified.
The 2024 Photo contest is ongoing: submit your picture for 31st March at the latest!
Here are the results of the 2017, 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2023 YCN Photo Contests.
