DPG is very proud to announce the opening of the Fifth Think Pink Photo Competition, organized by nonprofit organization Dive into the Pink, and hosted by DPG, with proceeds used to support the fight against breast cancer. This year, the judging panel is made up of pro underwater shooters Mike Bartick, Renee Capozzola, and Brandi Mueller.

We’re once again talking all things PINK! We want to see your most eye-popping images featuring the color pink, from the hue of your foreground subject to the pink polyps in the background reef, from an intense fuchsia to a delicate rosé. Photos may be entered into two categories, Macro and Wide Angle, and may have been taken anywhere, anytime. (For inspiration, see the winners of the First, Second, Third or Fourth Think Pink Photo Competition.)

This year’s awesome prize sponsors include Crystal Blue Resort, Anilao, Philippines and Lissenung Island Resort, Kavieng, Papua New Guinea, among others.

​Entry is via donation to Dive into the Pink ($15 per single entry, $35 for three entries, $50 for five entries). The deadline for submission is September 27th, 11:59pm EST.
 

Please read the full Rules and Guidelines (on DiveIntoThePink.org) before entering.

Thank you for supporting Dive into the Pink! 100% of the proceeds from this effort will be used to support the fight against breast cancer.

About Dive into the Pink

Dive into the Pink, Inc. was started in 2015 by Allison Vitsky, a breast cancer survivor, veteran scuba diver, and underwater photographer, who wanted to raise money to fight cancer in an unconventional way—by going scuba diving with friends.

Most of its funds are split between the Young Survival Coalition (YSC) and the Guise Laboratory at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. The YSC is an international organization dedicated to the critical issues of young women with breast cancer—specifically, Dive into the Pink supports and promotes the YSC's incredible patient support network. The Guise Laboratory is part of the Department of Endocrinology at Indiana University; funds are earmarked for a project examining whether characteristics of the bone marrow microenvironment can alter or promote the spread of breast and other cancers to the bones.

In 2024, all funds raised during the Think Pink Photo Competition will be distributed to the UCLA Brain Cancer Research Fund in loving memory of underwater photographer Deanne King.

Dive into the Pink is a salary-free, low-administrative cost 501c3 organization.
