Anthology Photography Competition

About this call

Anthology magazine invites photographers working at any level to enter the Anthology Photography Competition, which celebrates outstanding standalone images. Images must be on the theme 'The World As You See It' and are judged on quality, creativity, originality and visual or emotional impact, with extra merit for a creative interpretation of the brief. Styles can include street photography, landscapes, natural world and wildlife, macro, lifestyle, object and still life and architectural photography; technically manipulated images such as abstract, panoramic, stitched and composite work are also permitted. Prize winners are selected by a panel of independent judges, and judging is anonymous.
