CALL FOR ENTRY: LensCulture Earth Awards 2015 is an international photography competition seeking the best photography focused on our planet.
From artful and conceptual examinations of our diverse relationships to Earth, to journalistic exposés of environmental concerns or the stories of the good work being done to address them.

About ⇣

There are three categories:

• Fine Art: Photographic art projects inspired by the Earth and how we live on the planet can range from: abstract aesthetic explorations of nature near and far; personal, meditative looks at one s experience in the landscape; alternative processes incorporating natural items; fictional narratives exploring how we got to where we are and where we re going next.

• Documentary: Documentary and journalistic stories about the environment offer a look at the world today. Entries might include exposés of environmental offenses, documentation of cutting edge conservation work, narratives outlining solutions and alternatives, or documentation of the places we need to remember to cherish.

• Open: Sometimes a single image is more powerful alone — and many nature images such as wildlife and landscape are not made as part of a series. The open category is for single images looking at Earth and how we live on the planet.

All entrants must be able to supply high resolution images suitable for printing in media, and for public exhibition. All photographers retain full copyrights for their own work.

Entry fee fot this photography copetition: 20 USD for 1 single photo / 45 USD for 2 or 3 single photos / 60 USD for a related series of up to 10 photos.
