March Diary

'March Diary' is a global online photo contest hosted by cizucu, open to any creator registered with cizucu. The contest aims to curate outstanding works from the entries, discover new talents as a platform, and support the community.

The 'Diary' series, which started last month, is a contest where participants post photos taken daily along with the day's events, like a diary.

Diaries are a valuable means of recording one's life and experiences. Looking back later, you can objectively see how you've grown or changed, and gain new insights. Please include the story behind the events and photos in the captions to organize your thoughts and feelings.

March is a transitional month when a new season arrives. You can enjoy observing plants under the warm sky, organizing your surroundings for the upcoming new year, and participating in events such as the Doll Festival.

Share your casual March photo diaries with us. We look forward to many submissions.

The scenery that seems to have jumped out of a diary page exudes the warm atmosphere of March. It's nice to record flowers found during a walk and your mood at that time as a diary. Spring flowers will surely brighten the start of a fun day.

The greeting pigeon symbolizes the season of new beginnings. The caption 'Hello.' conveys a sense of readiness for new adventures, and there's a hint of the anticipation of a new life unique to March. How about leaving your enthusiasm for the new life here?

It might be nice to go on a trip for a change of pace. The new discoveries and encounters found in the extraordinary world you venture into provide a good opportunity to reflect on the ordinary. Enjoy the extraordinary and engrave the wonderful memories you gain there in your diary.

March, with the arrival of spring, awaits new encounters and beginnings. Giving flowers is a wonderful way to express joy and gratitude. It might be nice to leave the expectations and deep emotions for graduation and new life as memories through photos and words.


How was it?
Capture the emotions unique to March, such as the deep emotions of graduation, the beginning of a new life, and the beautiful scenery of plum and cherry blossoms dancing. Why not convey the charm and excitement of those moments without leaving anything out?
We hope that daily events are shared within the cizucu community, deepening the understanding of photography. We look forward to many submissions!
