Like many fellow uhh'ers I enter a few photo contests in line with my favoured photography subjects, however I recently came across a photo contest which totally baffled me as to the subject matter, this is it below, does anyone have a clue what I should look in my portfolio for??
"Transitions and displacements are the objects of reflection for our call. The concept of the two terms is a recall to the “liquid” vision of contemporary philosophy. Transitions, displacements, mutations of condition are the prerogatives of a fluid approach to reality, prerogatives of a free change in the state of things that allows full organic adherence to the environment and to the context in which each subject / object is immersed . The works that will take part in the exhibition will represent an excursus on the subject, addressed both from a physical, chemical and biological point of view and from a social, cultural and political one"
I have no clue, Martin....
My take: "...it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"
Couldn't say it better. WS certainly knew how to turn a phrase.
Too in love with their writing to see that it's just a bunch of gibberish.

I think they want pics of vegetable soup boiling on the stove.

I believe that the “judge” is laboring under a misapprehension; that they are employing an effective mode of communication? Unfortunately, it appears that, while their English may have been trained at some stage... it has since escaped, and returned to the wild.
My advice, whenever I see photographic competitions that mention the two words “contemporary philosophy”? Send the daft buggers a pic of ice and snow... it’ll probably win something. 😉
