After a five-year hiatus, Canon Singapore is bringing back its much-loved Canon PhotoMarathon, inviting photography enthusiasts of all stripes to capture the vibrancy of Singapore through their lenses.
Happening on 28 September 2024, whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting your journey in photography, this event is your chance to rediscover the joy of snapping that perfect shot.
This year’s theme, “Every Lens, Every Age,” is all about celebrating the diversity of perspectives that make photography such a powerful medium. The event challenges participants with a two-hour window to submit their best work for each theme, pushing them to think quickly and creatively as they roam the streets in search of the perfect shot.
“We’re thrilled to see the Canon PhotoMarathon return, and we can’t wait to witness the creativity that emerges from this event. It’s not just about taking photos; it’s about preserving moments, telling stories, and connecting with a community that shares a love for capturing the world through a lens,” says Mr Andrew Koh, Vice President and Head of Singapore Operations Group, Canon Singapore.
