  • What is the #ColorProWithMe2026 Photo Edit Challenge?

    The #ColorProWithMe2026 Photo Edit Challenge is a contest hosted by ColorPro where you can edit any of four select photos for a chance to win prizes. It is not a photography contest, but instead a way to show how you interpret a photograph with color and other visual elements like light.

  • ColorPro monitörüm yok. Hâlâ katılabilir miyim?

    Any monitor could be used for the #ColorProWithMe2026 Photo Edit Challenge. Since this is a color grading competition, we recommended using a monitor with wide color gamut coverage for the best editing experience.

  • Katılmak için gereken şartlar nelerdir?

  • What is a RAW photo?

    A RAW photo is an image captured directly from a camera sensor with minimal processing, preserving the highest level of detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range. Unlike compressed JPEG files, RAW images retain more data, giving photographers and creators more flexibility to fine-tune exposure, color, and tonal balance during post-production while maintaining exceptional image quality.

  • Renk düzenleme nedir?

    Color grading is the process of enhancing and refining the color, tone, and overall visual mood of an image or video during post-production. By adjusting elements like contrast, saturation, highlights, and shadows, creators can achieve a more polished, cinematic, or stylistically consistent look. Color grading is widely used in photography, filmmaking, and content creation to create visual depth, maintain color accuracy, and establish a distinct creative aesthetic.

  • Katılımlar nasıl değerlendirilecek?

    Entries will be evaluated based on Color Intent (40%), Technical Execution (30%), and Visual Impact & Creativity (30%). Judges will assess how effectively your color grading establishes mood and atmosphere, the overall quality and refinement of your edits, and the originality and visual impact of your final image. See “Judging Criteria” above.

  • Jüriler kimler?

    Ashraful Arefin (@ashrafularefin) and Luke Stackpoole (@withluke) are professional photographers who provided the RAW images to be used for this competition. They will select a total of 6 Finalists from among all submissions, and ColorPro will select the one Winner.
