Welcome to the ‘2022 Fundamental Colour Challenge’.
The objective is simple: Enter one Photograph, Pano or Video for each of the 3 fundamentally-coloured themes during the allotted two-week time window (for each theme).
What do we mean by fundamental colour?

You get the idea
During this six-week challenge, your coloured themes are:
- Weeks 1 and 2
– From 04/04/2022 to 18/04/2022
— GREEN - Weeks 3 and 4
– From 18/04/2022 to 02/05/2022
— PINK - Weeks 5 and 6
– From 02/05/2022 to 16/05/2022
— GREY
The 2022 Fundamental Colour Challenge offers the chance to win not just one badge, but one badge per theme!
Each of the 3 themes will have a Gold, Silver and Bronze winner rather than just a single winner for all of them combined as we’ve had in some previous Challenges. This means you could win up to three badges during the course of this Challenge
The winners of each of the three Themes will be judged by the @Challenges_Committee Inadequate bribing will not be tolerated and will lead to disqualification.
Images will be judged on:
- Fundamental colour match
- Subject Matter
- Composition
- Lighting
WHATS UP FOR GRABS
The winners for each Theme will be announced at the end of the Challenge, not at the end of each theme. We have to keep you on your toes, it’s a challenge remember
We have three awards available for you to win in our challenge. They are:
1st Place Winner - Gold Trophy
2nd Place Winner - Silver Trophy
3rd Place Winner - Bronze Trophy
For the competitor that scores the most points throughout the competition will receive a DJI T-Shirt
