Hi Martins, Thank you. That makes sense. I personally prefer to limit one place per photographer to have a wider and more diverse reach, but that would mean disqualifying very very good pictures. And I'm not sure what other implications this would have.
Hello Anton, Following the email I sent you off-list, would it be wise if we adopt a one photo per winner rule now, and push up other winners? Or, do you or the org team, have any alternative suggestions? Looking forward to your thoughts.
