Hong Kong Flower Show's portrait photo shooting activity open for enrolment
***************************************************************************
The portrait photo shooting activity is jointly organised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB).
Anyone interested may enrol through My SmartPLAY App, the SmartPLAY webpage or Smart Self-service Stations from today (March 1) to March 13. The maximum number of participants is 800. Participants will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Entry fees are $50 (normal rate) and $25 for full-time students, senior citizens aged 60 or above and persons with disabilities.
Additionally, there will be a flower show photo competition entitled "Floral Joy Around Town". It aims to promote community greening with impressive photographs of flowers and plants on display, interesting or touching scenes captured at the showground, and portraits of TVB artistes and Miss Hong Kong titleholders with beautiful garden displays as a backdrop.
The photo competition is divided into three categories. Category A, Portrait of TVB Artistes and Miss Hong Kong, comprises open and student sections, in which all entrants must enrol in the portrait photo shooting activity to be held at 3.30pm on March 14 at Victoria Park.
It is not necessary to sign up in advance for Category B, Flowers, and Category C, Snapshots. However, entrants are required to pay admission fees for taking photographs at the showground during the show period. Photographs must be related to this year's flower show.
