Synopsis
A photography contest, open to professionals and amateurs. The contestants and judges come from across Europe, and the location shoots are also across the continent.
Half of each show is given over to the contestants taking their photographs. Then they discuss their work with a mentor, and present the best photographs to the judges.
The judges never make clear what they're looking for. The worst performer, in the judges' sole opinion, leaves the show.
A very atmospheric programme, enhanced by a careful choice of music and the gentle narration of Isabella Rossinelli. We found it didn't have many tips for amateur photographers at home.
Champion
Gabriele Micalizzi
Trivia
An in-house production by three Sky Arts channels: in UK and Ireland, in Germany and Austria, and in Italy. The shows went out at the same time on all three networks.
