During January, the theme of the jIAPS Photography Competition is a photo that describes your mood/excitement/feeling for 2023 or a photo featuring your New Year’s Resolution. We would love to see your photos – just email us at jiaps@iaps.info, tag us on social media or post your photos in the #photos channel of the IAPS Discord. You don’t have to be a current physics student to enter.
This month we also have a non-photo element to the competition. If you don’t want to share a photo, just tell us your New Year’s Resolutions – they could be serious or funny. Just post them on Discord (or if you’d like to remain anonymous, you can write them in this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaGfKofJD6TBf0fvdKCbetnmERwRfr3Qq4e7PKCL56Kblpqg/viewform ).
As well as the monthly themes, jIAPS always enjoys seeing Physics-related photos, including photos of events organised by IAPS and other Physics societies. You can see some of the best photos of Physics events here.
