Press Release Sergiy Glushchenko

Sergiy Glushchenko achieved a high level of success in UnderwaterPhotography.com photo contest 2008.

This photography contest is the longest running and one of the most prestigious online. If you want to make a name for yourself this is THE place to do it. Many other internationally acclaimed photographers have launched their photo careers here over the years.

Every January a panel of judges select the best images entered in our online photo contest from the previous year. Gold, silver, and bronze medals are awarded for the top three from each category in order of merit.

The judges comprise of industry professionals (and last year’s World Champ). They are unpaid, non-affiliated, and (of course) cannot enter themselves.

One of our medals is the reward for all the hard work Sergiy Glushchenko put in chasing those great shots in far-flung destinations. It's the most coveted prize because it says you succeeded in the most competive environment there is, against the top talent of the moment. Sergiy Glushchenko was up against 12552 entries in this category to get placed.
