2014 - April-May - Politics and politicians

In April we also start an overlapping challenge until end of May. This is on politics and politicians – so feel free to add your portraits on politicians as well as your reporter photography on political significant events from all over the world (elections, discussions, protest, war, whatever).

For this theme, photographs must be newly uploaded to Commons during the challenge submission period (but may have been taken earlier) and must be the work of the nominator. The challenge will remain open for submissions throughout April and May UTC.

Please add your entries to the bottom of the Entries section below and add the category Photo challenge/2014 - April-May - Politics and politicians to all your submissions. -- Achim Raschka (talk) 18:50, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

This Challenge has now closed for submissions. -- HelenOnline 09:23, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
