Categorías de premios
- PORTRAIT – Human subjects are the focus here.
- NATURE – Images related to land, sea, sky, the natural world.
- STREET – Street photography is generally understood to be candid unposed moments of everyday life in public spaces. Images may be spontaneous and chaotic or they may be more quiet observations.
- COLOUR – Images may feature one colour or an explosion of many. Or maybe they capture a few that feel in perfect harmony with one another. How can you make the viewer notice the colour first?
- FASHION – Whether these images are editorial, lookbook, shot in studio or not, we want to see your most striking work.
