About
After six seasons of competition, and over a quarter of a million visual photographic masterpieces, HIPA has once again set out to inspire photographers from all walks of life to attain greatness through forward thinking and creativity.
They request that photographers, for a short while, forget the past and ignore the future to be fully immersed in ‘The Moment’. Photographers must delve deep into the madness and spontaneity of the present when capturing their photographs for HIPA’s Seventh Season main category.
"The Moment" will be the main theme of the Seventh Season of competition.
The biggest surprise of this season is the launch of video submissions for the 7th Season of competition.
The new ‘Time-lapse’ category, introduces an exciting phase in the competition which targets a new segment of the creative community.
Categories have been chosen which will inspire some of the world's finest and most committed photographers. The Award encourages photographers to share their craft and demonstrate excellence in what is now one of the most coveted Awards in the world.
The four categories are:
• The Moment (main theme for this edition)
• Portfolio (story-telling)
