The second Rotterdam race, with six themes from Metamorphosis to At your service and the last checkpoint at The Student Hotel.
The second Urban Photo Race in Rotterdam ran on Saturday 12 May 2018, and by the end of the day there were many tired but smiling faces, which for the team is always the sign of a good race. The six themes asked for new ways of photographing and a new look at the city: Metamorphosis, You will never walk alone, Immersion, Urban sport, Street art and At your service.
The team thanked the local team, Iwona Montel, Arjan Boerlage and Jessica Boerlage, who did far more than anyone asked, Fotofestival aan de Maas for a container at its festival, and The Student Hotel for hosting the last checkpoint.
Thank you for organizing yet another intensive, challenging, creative and energizing day of street photography! It was great to participate again!
