Winners of Wiki Loves Romania 2014
Organizing Wiki Loves Monuments in Romania this year was the hardest so far. Why so? We had a bigger budget, which allowed us to be more ambitious, so on top of the free photography contest for Wikipedia we had to manage a photo exhibition, a 2 day field trip, an additional contest for juniors, a team of volunteering interns and more. But it was rewarding, the results are notable: over 8200 pictures from 216 contributors.
I will tease with the top 3 photos from the contest, you can see all of them on our website.
1st place: Bogdan Croitoru with Monumentul triumfal Tropaeum Traiani
You can also see the winning pictures, along with highlights from the previous editions and winners of the section dedicated to younger contributors in a photo exhibition opened for 3 weeks at the National Library in Bucharest. After that, the expo will move for a couple more weeks at Universitatea de Vest in Timișoara.

Congratulations on a strong Wiki Loves Romania edition — over 8,200 pictures from 216 contributors is an impressive result, especially for what you describe as the hardest year so far. The top three winning photographs sound striking, from the Tropaeum Traiani monument to the Râșnov fortress view. It is a lovely way to celebrate Romania's heritage through photography.
