Photo competition: Snap your way to publicity and a hotel gift card of 500 Euros

This competition has come to an end

Thanks to all those who have submitted their contributions! We have received hundreds of beautiful photos, and are currently going through all with a keen and very impressed eye. Are you one of the 3 lucky winners? If so, you will be contacted shortly and awarded a Strawberry gift card. Didn't win this time? Fear not, your photo may still be among the 10 best contributions which will be displayed in an article on our website - stay tuned!

What kind of photos are we looking for?

We are looking for pictures taken in the Strawberry universe. This means destinations in which our hotels are located, or of our hotels. Are you staying in one of our hotels? Why not take a quick moment to capture the façade before entering, or highlight a cool detail in the lobby, or maybe a cosy picture of your room before you jump on the bed? And if you're not staying in a hotel but live at - or simply drive through - one of our destinations, you can still enter by snapping a good shot of little known landmarks and charming corners of your town. Get out there and document the beauty with which you surround yourself!

Tips, advices and expectations

The very most important thing: be creative! We give you a list of tips and advices to guide and inspire you, but the most important thing for us is that we get to see the world as you see it.

• We welcome untraditional cuts and perspectives.
• We would like unusual photos of our destinations. Perhaps something else than the already well-documented Nidarosdomen Cathedral to illustrate Trondheim..? Or, if cathedrals are your thing, you could find a unique take on capturing this beautiful building by playing with different cuts and angles.
• Try to avoid faces in your photos - we cannot publish pictures with identifiable faces.
• We welcome photos in both portrait and landscape orientation.
• No filters, please.
• Photos do not need to be fresh from the press! Have a look through your old photos and see if you might have been a talented photographer all along.
• Entered photos must be your own - make sure you hold full rights to the photos you send us.

1. place: Gift card of 500 Euros
2. place: Gift card of 300 Euros
3. place: Gift card of 100 Euros

Additionally, we will display the ten best photos in an article.

The article will also be shared with our followers on Facebook.
