    It seems Hasselblad have not been fair to all the entrants of this years Hasselblad masters awards 2012.

    Complaints were made to Hasselblad, several months ago, that some entrants have not conformed to the basic rules of entry for the competition where it states 'all 5 image submissions MUST be from the same series.

    3 entrants were outlined to Hasselblad within the Fashion/Beauty category that failed to fulfil this basic requirement. It now seems one of these 3 'rule breakers' has won their category stealing the title from genuine entrants.

    Hasselblad were notified of this several times and It has been ignored; Hasselblads response, from Denmark, was nothing but ignorant, rude and completely unfair to all those that have conformed to the rules of entry.

    The prestigipeous Hasselblad Masters Awards are flawed and sadly, unfair!

    This is not to say all photographers who ended are not talented, they indeed are- just that rules are rules and if exceptions are made for one, especially if it strengthens a portfolio submission or could sway the judges, then it should be an exception for all, or the competition is completely unfair.

    Those not conforming to the rules should be rejected or disqualified!

    I truly feel for all those who have lost out to such a shameful decision and opportunity.
