DPG photo competition: My DPG conference bag "on Tour"

In the anniversary year 2020, the DPG called for a special kind of photo competition: Pictures were sought that depicted one of the most distinctive features of the DPG-Frühjahrstagungen (DPG Spring Conferences) - the conference bags.

The conditions were difficult:

• Cancellation of the 2020 DPG-Frühjahrstagungen, therefore no fresh conference bags.
• Pandemic-related travel restrictions that made photos at exotic locations impossible.
• Generally enough on ones plate with home office, distance learning, etc.

Nevertheless, DPG members submitted diverse, creative and beautiful images. The submissions are presented on this website. A small calendar was created from some of the pictures, which the submitters received as a thank you.

Have fun with the submitted pictures!

When the sun goes down, the French Alps "glow", as seen here in the picture - a breathtaking sight every time. One of my many DPG bags is lying on the railing of the "Pont de la Porte de France".

As a flag it shows the wind direction and accompanies me on my journey.

Much team-spirit and celebration of the 175th anniversary! Depending on the interpretation, the picture can represent both a virus (for current situation) and a sun (hope).
