Introduction

'August Diary' is a global online photo contest hosted by cizucu, open to any creator registered with cizucu. The contest curates outstanding works from submissions, aiming to discover new talents as a platform and support the community.

The 'Diary' series is a contest where participants post photos taken daily along with the day's events, like a diary. August is the peak of summer, filled with memories of bright sunshine, cool seas, fireworks, summer festivals, and travels.

Each photo capturing summer moments or special events in everyday life will surely become a cherished memory. We invited photos of August's unique scenes, like moments by the pool, enjoying ice cream, summer sunsets, and sunflower fields.

Now, let's introduce the submitted and award-winning works.

This photo captures auroras seen in Hokkaido, Japan. It coincided with the peak of the Perseid meteor shower, and you can spot the meteors in the image. A remarkable capture of a special summer event.

A photo of a summer cumulus cloud. This type of cloud is mostly seen in August. The time spent gazing at the sky is a hallmark of August, and the sunset hitting the clouds, with streetlights beginning to glow, evokes the peaceful end of a summer day.
