Overview

All About Photo invites photographers to submit their best shots inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson's statement: "To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye, and one's heart on the same axis."

Practical Info

The award is open to professional and amateur photographers alike, and to all genres. All types of photography, from digital to analog to alternative processes and beyond are encouraged to enter. Applicants can submit up to 57 images. Photographs will be judged individually and not as a unified group of photos.
