Actually no, these are not important issues:
- for the pictures that do not belong to any monument (which is
probably only one, from Egypt), I am sure the international jury will
have the wisdom to give it a small score;
- there are no country with more than 10 pictures. France listed 3
special prizes beyond their top 10, but those 3 are clearly out of the
international contest;
- if there are pictures of furniture, not building interiors, also I
am sure the jury will judge them correctly;
- movable, immovable heritage, this is a federative contest and it was
up to each country to define its list of monuments.
