The "Yakutsk Historical" category invites historical photographs, archival photos of the city environment and residents from the 19th-20th centuries. The "Creative Photo Series" category offers an opportunity to showcase a series of 5-10 photographs united by the common theme "My Yakutsk" with an original and creative approach to photography.

All participants will receive certificates for their participation. The authors of the best works in the contest will be awarded diplomas and valuable prizes.
