The 17th edition of the Sirmione Photography Award<\/strong> enters the final two competitions scheduled for 2026, both still open for registration. Two events with different formats, deadlines, and entry requirements, but united by the same goal: to tell the story of Sirmione<\/strong> and Lake Garda<\/strong> through a personal lens.<\/p>\n

Sirmione Photo Marathon<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

Sunday, October 11<\/strong>
\nRegistration deadline: October 4
\n8 hours, 4 themes
\nFirst prize: \u20ac1,500<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lake Garda Photo Challenge<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

Registration deadline: October 31<\/strong>
\nFirst prize: \u20ac1,500<\/strong><\/p>\n

To inspire you<\/strong>, we’ve collected a selection of images from previous editions of the two competitions. These very different photographs are born from different ways of observing, interpreting, and describing Sirmione<\/strong> and Lake Garda<\/strong>, places capable of sparking the imagination and offering new insights to those who view them through a camera.<\/p>\n

The 10+1 photographs<\/strong> we present here are just a small selection of the many images collected over the years, all equally beautiful and capable of offering ideas and inspiration.<\/p>\n

\n

1.<\/strong>
\nBruno Barcellan<\/strong>
\nLake Garda Photo Challenge 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

An aerial view of Jamaica Beach becomes a reflection on the graphic and chromatic values \u200b\u200bof the rocks. An almost abstract painting, except for a small human presence in an introspective atmosphere.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"default\"<\/p>\n

\n

2.<\/strong>
\nCarlo Secondo Coco<\/strong>
\nLake Garda Photo Challenge 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

A suggestive sunset over the lake, with warm colors and reflections creating a relaxing atmosphere. A chromatic emphasis that unites the pedal boat and the landscape in a pictorial chromatic harmony.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

3.<\/strong>
\nValerio Francesco Di Mauro<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

A figure from behind blends in among hydrangeas and lush greenery. The body merges with the place that welcomes it. The use of reflections confuses the planes and amplifies the interpenetration between figure and environment.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

4.<\/strong>
\nStefano Mani<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sky and the Scaligero Castle, reflected in the water, merge with the submerged vegetation. A suspended and almost surreal composition is created, in which the surface becomes a sort of inverted landscape.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

5.<\/strong>
\nAmbra Mariani<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

A circle of clarity emerges from the blurred background: a reflective object becomes a portal through which a portrait can be glimpsed, nestled against the calm, vaporous backdrop of Jamaica Beach.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

6.<\/strong>
\nAugusto Veronesi<\/strong>
\nLake Garda Photo Challenge 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

A paraglider floats over an expanse of liquid gold, a diagonal line of shadow cuts across the figure. The raking light transforms the water into molten metal and the man into a point of freedom.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

7.<\/strong>
\nMarco Car\u00e8<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two figures immersed in the emerald green water, while the Scaligero Castle looms above the surface like a theatrical backdrop. An unusual and ambitious point of view.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

8.<\/strong>
\nNikolay Kalugerov<\/strong>
\nLake Garda Photo Challenge 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

The famous marsh cypress tree on the Lugana lakefront in still, pastel-colored water where everything seems suspended.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

9.<\/strong>
\nAntonio Comencini<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

The body bends in an arch over the rocks of Jamaica Beach, until it itself becomes a line of landscape.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

10.<\/strong>
\nMihai Daniel Rosca<\/strong>
\nSirmione Photo Marathon 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this double exposure, a hand overlaps the vegetation, blurring the lines between human detail and natural landscape. A way to “read the place” through the body.<\/em>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n
\n

10 + 1<\/strong>
\nChiara Menegatti<\/strong>
\nLake Garda Photo Challenge 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

The reward for the climb is a breathtaking view: the expanse of Lake Garda bathed in the colors of sunset. The lake captured at a moment when the landscape seems to breathe.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
