The 10th Swiss Press Photo Award will be presented in Zurich on April 28. 30 press photographers and photojournalists from Switzerland, Germany and Austria have been nominated for the award, and the main prize winners in the eight categories have been determined. They were selected from around a thousand entries from 300 photographers by a jury of seven headed by Ulrich Tanner (President, Tawapress) and Wilfried Seywald (Pressetext/Fotodienst). The jury also includes Piero Schäfer of the Swiss Advertising Association. The most entries were in the Portrait & People category, with Construction & Architecture and Travel International right behind.
