INSPIRE is open for submission

We are happy to announce that the 5th edition of our International Travel and Documentary Photography Competition is open for submission!

This year’s theme is: INSPIRE

In times of instability and uncertainty it is the role of the visual storyteller not only to inform, but also to inspire others and to give hope: this is why we challenge you to send us up to five of your most inspiring photos! 

This year’s winner will be able to choose their prize between a Nikon Z7, a Canon EOS R, a Sony A7R III, or $3000 cash!

What are you waiting for? The contest is open until 1000 participants are reached! Do you know that the average photographic competition attracts way more than 1000 participants? By limiting their number we give to all our participants a higher chance of winning the final prize.

New Eyes: winner announced!

Gunarto Gunawan has been nominated as the absolute winner of New Eyes, the third international travel photography competition organised by 1000for1.com.

The image taken in one of Bagan’s temple in Myanmar captures one very special moment: the ray of light impacting the statue’s heart at the same time a monk is cleaning it turns this shot into a unique one that will be remembered in the history of travel photography.

Congratulations to Gunarto!

Gunarto is a travel photographer from Indonesia that focusses on a variety of subjects, ranging from landscapes to macro photography, from portraiture to architecture. Our winner doesn’t have a personal site, yet he’s very active on a slew of social platforms: make sure you check out his stunning work on facebook, 1x, 500px and instagram

 

The jury have also decided to nominate four honourable mentions: these go to Muhammad Mostafigur RahmanMarcin RyczekZay Yar Lin and Louis Montrose.

 

 

These photographers all receive a free entry in the next competition organised by 1000for1.com
