Event

What started off as simply a photography contest by the name of Dog Love introduced by fist_ART foundation in 2010 as a way for the Dorado Beach community to interact, ended up being a big part of both the foundation and the community. Now, going by the name of Pet Love, this activity has been evolving from what use to be a photography contest of canines only to all animals and animal lovers. As an activity done once a year, Pet love is, in al its essence, a photography contest that hopes to increase people’s awareness of the love and care a pet deserves. Nevertheless, every year the theme changes in order to motivate participants to expand their knowledge in photo editing, artistic styles to enhance photography, and best capture those unforgettable moments that “through our camera’s lens we are able to grasp the essence of our beloved pets”.
