Amity School of Communication is organising photography competition Click-O-Mania on 7th November 2025 on the theme " Travel Dairies: Exploring Hidden Destinations". Travel is more than just visiting new places, it’s about discovering the unseen, the untold, and the unexplored. We will celebrate the spirit of adventure and curiosity that drives every traveller to step beyond.
This theme invites participants to capture the essence of journeys that lead to hidden gems, the offbeat villages tucked in the mountains, serene beaches away from the crowd, ancient lanes filled with stories, or cultural experiences that remain untouched by commercial tourism. Through words, visuals, or storytelling, participants can share how these lesser-known destinations reveal the true beauty of the world and perhaps, of themselves. Through this event, the Amity School of Communication provides a platform for both students and professional photographers to share their vision and contribute to a greater appreciation of India’s colourful landscape.
Photography is an art form that captures fleeting moments and emotions, freezing them in time through the lens of a camera. It allows us to tell stories, evoke memories, and see the world from unique perspectives. Every photograph is a snapshot of life, preserving beauty and truth in its purest form, whether it’s a grand landscape or a simple, intimate moment.
