Société Française des Amis de Saint-Jacques de Compostelle La plus ancienne de toutes les associations jacquaires – depuis 1950

2024 photo competition prize-giving ceremony

For the second year running, pilgrims were invited to take part in the photo competition and submit their views of a moment captured during their walk.

The jury had a tough job of arbitrating between all the different proposals!

The photo competition, which has already captured the hearts of our members, continued on Instagram to award the Public Prize.

The Jury and Public prizes were awarded at the general meeting of the Société Française des Amis de Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle on February 15, 2025.

Who doesn’t remember the herds of cattle along the Camino, posing for a surprising exchange of glances with a cow?
The composition of this photo emphasizes the three planes of plant, animal and earth.
