Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced the 3rd edition of Dubai’s Best Sustainable Transport Means Photo Competition. The competition focuses on the theme of “Mobility in Dubai” and is held in collaboration with the Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum International Photography Awards (HIPA).
This year’s contest will harness the power of photography to promote awareness about the significance of sustainable transportation. Photographers, photography enthusiasts, residents, tourists, and public transport users can join the competition by capturing the beauty of Dubai’s public transport including the metro, tram, public buses, and water transport like the water bus, water taxi, ferry, and abra.
Yousef Al Rida, CEO of the Corporate Administrative Support Services Sector, RTA, said, “The competition, which coincides with the Year of Sustainability 2023, aims to encourage residents, tourists, and particularly public transport users to showcase Dubai’s sustainable transportation through their smartphone lenses. The contest highlights the experiences of public transport pioneers via photography. At the same time, it promotes the public transport means of Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority as a blend of leisure and transport. The public can take part in the contest using personal accounts on Instagram using the hashtag #RTAxHIPA.”
How To Participate?
The competition has two categories: a portfolio and a single photo. Here are the details for each category:
1. Portfolio Category: Participants are required to submit a collection of 5 images.
2. Single Photo Category: For this category, only a single image is needed.
It’s important to note that the same photo cannot be used in both categories; doing so will result in disqualification. All submitted images must meet the following technical requirements:
- Format: JPEG.
- High resolution.
- Minimum size: 5 MB.
- The longer dimension of the photo should be no less than 2,000 pixels.
- Image quality should be at least 300 dpi.
Participants are allowed to use mobile phones to capture their images, but each photo should be a minimum of 2 MB in size.
