Photography is a diverse and fascinating medium, encompassing a litany of styles and genres. This is evidenced in our online magazine, which features news, reviews, stories, and editorials on the best contemporary photography, and moreover, through our monthly awards, each of which is centered around a particular theme, from black & white to color; landscape (the 2022 edition is open for entries until May 1st) to portrait; visual storytelling, street and more.

We’ve invited practitioners, working across all styles and genres, to showcase their talent, creativity, and skill, and they certainly haven’t disappointed.

Over the years, we have received a wealth of truly remarkable images from some of the most talented up-and-coming photographers of today and it has been our pleasure and privilege to showcase their creations.
