DPG is proud to announce the opening of the Second Think Pink Photo Competition, organized by Dive into the Pink, and hosted by DPG. This year’s judges are photo pros Mike Bartick, Tanya Burnett, and Alex Mustard.

Once again, the name of the game is PINK. We want to see your best images featuring pink, from the color of your subject to a flash in the background, from the lightest blush to the deepest fuchsia. Photos may have been taken anywhere, anytime. (For inspiration, check out the winners of the First Think Pink Photo Competition.)

This year, there are two separate categories—Macro and Wide Angle—and even more prizes: a six-day package to Crystal Blue Resort, Anilao, Philippines; a six-day Visayas Safari aboard MV Discovery Palawan, Philippines; a Kraken Sports Hydra 3500 lumen light; an AOI 12.5x diopter with flip thread adapter; $250 gift certificates towards Saga Dive products; a copy of Blackwater and Open Blue by Scott “Gutsy” Tuason; and a copy of Secrets of the Seas by Alex Mustard and Callum Roberts.

​Entry is via donation to Dive into the Pink ($10 per single entry, $25 for three entries, and $45 for six entries). The deadline for submission is July 6th, 12am EST.
 

Please read the full Rules and Guidelines (on DiveIntoThePink.com) 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.

Its charters let divers get together for a fun, pink-accented day on the ocean knowing that 100% of the proceeds will go towards survivor support and breast cancer research.

Its funds are split between the Young Survival Coalition (YSC) and the Guise Laboratory at Indiana University.  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.

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