The aim of the contest is to photograph the 34 active lighthouses managed by the APB in the islands of Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza, Formentera and Cabrera and in the islets of the Balearic Islands, like Dragonera, with the aim of promoting the knowledge of lighthouses among the users of these networks. The APB will design a poster with the best 34 photos which will be used as promotional material.
For one month, the participants will be able to send their photographs, whenever they do not photograph the same lighthouse more than 3 times. The contest finishes the 21st of June and a jury formed by staff of the APB will select the best photographs on the 28th of June.
The award for the winners will be the book History of the lighthouses of the Balearic Islands, written by Javier Pérez de Arévalo and edited by Lunwerg Editores / Editorial Planeta. The winners will also receive the poster of the lighthouses of the Balearic Islands designed with the awarded photos, which will bear the name of the author.
