Are you an exchange student at the Faculty of Arts? Are you an ardent photographer – or do you just enjoy capturing moments around you? Take part in a photo competition that will allow you to show how you see Olomouc.
The theme of the competition is "Olomouc through my eyes." It can be an everyday scene, a new discovery, a cultural difference – anything that inspires you.
