Naïade Plante

This Sunday, October 27, at noon, in the sumptuous Chapelle des Franciscaines, the Planches Contact Festival jury unveiled the long-awaited results of the La 25ᵉ heure Longines photo competition. In front of a packed room, photography enthusiasts, the curious and participants gathered to discover the winners of this exceptional edition, marked by record participation!

The La 25ᵉ Heure Longines competition is a not-to-be-missed event for lovers of photography and creativity. Each year, the competition invites participants to capture Deauville from an unprecedented angle, during the extra hour offered by the switch to winter time, between midnight and 1am. The subject matter is free, giving everyone the chance to unveil their own vision of this magical hour in the town of Deauville.

This year, the contest inspired 221 participants, all ready to immortalize Deauville as never seen before! At midnight, the start was given on the parvis des Franciscaines, launching this merry band of photographers through the streets of the town, with friends, family or solo.

The result? An explosion of creativity hung in the Franciscan Cloister from dawn, where everyone could discover their work, ready to take home as a souvenir.
