Categories and Themes: 

There are 8 themes in total you can enter in the HONOR Magic Moments Awards：

1. Portrait: Everyone can be seen as a floating island, carrying his or her own stories and sceneries. The shutter only takes an instant, but what it records is the calmness after time passes by, or the childishness that has not yet entered the adult world.

2. Dark Night: When the earth falls into slumber and the darkness descends, it is a mysterious and magical dark world, yet also a spiritual dive into solitude; it is the ocean of stars within grasps, yet also the romantic dazzle of the moon.

3. Landscape: Spectacular views of high mountains and great rivers away from cities, edges of the world with little human trace, changing scenery as seasons shift, tranquil morning mist, fleeting pinkish sunset clouds, and all the tiny moments in life that happen within a split seconds … The beautiful scenery can be anywhere when we pay attention.

4. Abstract: The concept of abstract could be an interpretation and expression of emotions, a touch of childish fantasy or an tacit understanding of the unspoken words. It originates from inner desire. Use points, lines, planes and colors to convert characters into symbols and freeze the frames of visuals.

5. Documentary: With the first ray of sunlight, People start a day either exciting, trivial or disorganized. No matter how different the day is, everyone can find a moment worthy of freezing.

6. Dusk and Dawn: In the early morning, the sun rises from the east, the light shines through the clouds, or simply brightens the cyan sky. The sunshine is dazzling and warm, its glory awakens everything. At dusk, the sunset is dreamy and enchanting, fleeting but alluring, leading the earth to a peaceful night.

7. Cityscape: Every city has its own style. Either lively and noisy, or light and quiet. Countless people hustle through the city, but only when they stop the steps and look up, the loveliness and charm of this steel-made city can be seen.

8. Creatures: Nature has its routines. Every creature is lovely, bright and pretty. They are speakers of nature. The sounds that insects and birds are chanting are beautiful as poetry. They are paint brushes of nature. Different colors can all be rich in various flowers. Living by your side or anywhere else, no matter the distances, they are always the best company.

Which one is your pick? Choose your themes and share your inspiration!
