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’d look for another contest! Be interesting to see what turns up though. Maybe a photograph of the periodic table,

Um, I was a writing teacher for forty years. If the guy who wrote this was in one of my classes, me surely failed.

I don’t think the judges know either. Enter any photo you want and it will probably qualify.

lol, that wil do it then, a blank sheet of A4


A4 would be acceptable since it demonstrates the radical transition from A3 to A5.

If you display it by laying it on the floor it is also exhibiting displacement.

After you read the post-Fordist humanities journals for a few months you might understand this for the BS it is.

Anything in your portfolio from the Bay area in California might work.
