HTC One Hot Press Photojournalist shortlist announced

Last month, we announced details of our HTC One Hot Press Photojournalist competition.

To celebrate the launch of the new HTC One Series, we decided to offer ten lucky aspiring photojournalists an opportunity to attend and capture an intimate gig with the fantastic Royseven.

Hundreds of you responded, sending in some seriously impressive photos. The decision was tough, but we whittled the entrants down to a not-so-short list of 125! From this list, the final shortlist of ten will be selected.

The lucky winners will be given a fantastic HTC One which features an amazing camera, and asked to take pics at a once-off intimate, up-close-and-personal Royseven gig on May 16.

One overall winner will be selected to become the HTC One Hot Press photojournalist and will have the opportunity to report and capture some of the best gigs this summer including Forbidden Fruit, Snow Patrol, Florence + Machine and Electric Picnic. Each gig review, photos and video will be published in Hot Press, on hotpress.com and HTC Ireland's Facebook page.

Thanks again to everyone who entered, and good luck to the finalists!
