実のところ、この賞の存在はバングラデシュの写真家Munem Wasifから、彼のtainted teaの写真がcontemporary issuesのカテゴリーで一位に選ばれた事を知らせてくれたために知った次第です。

まだ完全にサイトの方に情報が更新されていない様で、ぱっと見ると、現時点では訳が分からない感じです。せめて、受賞者のカテゴリーがこの時点でもあって欲しいのですが...。

賞については英文ですが、こういう概要です。

Contest
The Press Photography Contest 2007

The first edition of the Press Photography Contest, which was announced in December 2005, met with a favourable reception in the world of press photography. 650 submitted photo stories, consisting of over 5000 images, which received a great recognition from the panel of judges as well as an enthusiastic response from their viewers, not only exceeded our wildest expectations but also proved that press photography enjoys considerable and still growing popularity in Poland. Encouraged by this remarkable success of the Contest's first edition, we have decided to continue with the initiative of supporting press photography in Poland by starting its second, somewhat modified, edition. This year, all the submitted works will be evaluated and awarded by a jury whose members are famous photographs and photo-editors working for widely-known magazines and main Polish newspapers.

There are four categories of photo stories:
- people in the news
- arts and culture
- contemporary issues
- sport
single photo category
- news of the year

The submission deadline is February 6, 2007.

The total worth of the contest awards is 50.000 PLN

The post-contest exhibition will be held in the Warsaw Traffic Club for three weeks. Then the awarded photographs will also hit the town. Just like a year ago, they will be displayed on billboards in main Warsaw streets, and, what is more, this year they will be also visible on the city buses.

The Press Photography Contest is directed to professional photographers working for photographic agencies, newspapers and magazines' editorial offices as well as freelancers. A panel of professionals will guarantee its high level and standard. The Contest follows the example of World Press Photo and thus has similar foundations, that is the promotion of photojournalism as a way of perceiving and representing people and everyday events as well as documenting the reality around us. The Contest aims at emphasizing the importance of press photography not only in the art of journalism but also in everyday life as such. Apart from that, it also tries to show the meaning of the photojournalistic esthetics and the language it uses.

The Contest presents the condition and level of Polish press photography, whose main representatives are widely recognized and achieve spectacular successes in various international contests. At the same time, it gives the chance to compare how, if at all, Polish and foreigner photographers differ in their perception of the surrounding world.
The main assumption of the Contest is to support and popularize the works of professional press photographers, whose courage, sensitivity, devotion and the so-called "sharp eye" deserve the highest respect. It is also an attempt to consolidate the world of photojournalists by proving that, irrespective of competing interests of various agencies and publishing companies, sharing a common, very often inspirational and valuable, idea can and, in fact, do matter.
