About the Competition

National Geographic Creative Photographer Sean Gallagher is challenging you to capture happiness.

Happiness is about beauty and creativity. Happiness can be full of pride and joy.

Capture Happiness at any CapitaLand property worldwide and enter your photo in the 5th CapitaLand-National Geographic Channel photography competition and you will stand a chance to win attractive prizes, or even join Sean on an international photographic assignment.

1. Take a photograph of what 'Happiness' means to you at one of the many CapitaLand properties worldwide. Happiness can be interaction the building shares with the surrounding landscape and the people who enjoy it on a daily basis.

Surrounding Landscape - How does the building sit, quietly nestled or proud and majestic against its back drops? How does it interact with its surroundings and come alive with vibrancy at night? How does it playfully interact with the skies above or sit during the first ray of dawn?

People - How does it interact with people on a daily basis. From those who live and work there, to those who frequent it for a quick shop, rest-bite or even a date night.

2. Tell us why your photograph captures 'Happiness'.

3. And finally, submit your image for your chance to win one of the following prizes.

The closing date 15 Jun 2014, 23:59. On the web site and no limit of photos you can submit.
 

Thanks very much.
 

Guys I need advice.
I uploaded my photos onto the website but my photos took for the worse - it became slightly desaturated. Please advise!
 

I don't think it's a problem because we all face the same problem on the browser preview. You can preview from your television, handphone, other software viewer or anything that can preview your photo than upload again.

Another way is PM photographiee and hopefully he get back to you before closing time. :phonecall
 

No response thus far. Have dropped an enquiry to them though. Photos submitted too. Hopefully just preview issue.
