Q2 2023 – Let the Sun Shine
Following 2023 Sechseläuten ceremony and its famous Böögg snowman head explosion that took this year 57 mins to burst, a lot of us are wondering if we will have a summer at all.
This quarter PICZ is thus asking you to counter the bad luck. Through your picture we ask you to show us what “Let the sun shine” means to you.
As always we ask you to be creative and imaginative. Feel free to interpret the theme as you want and to surprise our jury members. The most important is as always: having a good reason to take your camera out and to have fun.

Title: Sunny wheat season
Votes: 0
Views: 188
Description: Wheat needs the right amount of sunshine for a good quality bread. If the sun shines too much, the plant suffers from heat and drought; if it rains too much, diseases damage the plant and yield and baking quality drop. The picture was taken in the field phenotyping platform of ETH Zurich (www.kp.ethz.ch/FIP) in which more than 350 different varieties of wheat are evaluated for their climate-suitability.
