Focus on the Story Awards – until 13 March 2019

Posted on by

Deadline: 13 March 2019.Focus on the Story is looking for images that explore the human condition, allowing for a broad interpretation of the emotions, struggles, conflicts and needs that shape human existence. We will make awards in two categories – Best Single Image and Best Series.

Among the factors judges will consider is how the images tell the story of an individual or group struggle against challenges (whether they are natural, political or economic); shine a light on marginalized or disenfranchised segments of society; or bring attention to people, places, events or things that are making a positive difference in their communities, region or the world, in general.

Prizes:

Best Single Image — $1,000 to an overall Winner, $500 to the First Runner-Up and $250 to the Second Runner-Up; winner and select runners up will be exhibited at Focus on the Story 2019 and published in a year-end “best of” book.

Best Series of up to 8 related images — $1,000 to an overall Winner, $500 to the First Runner-up and $250 to the Second Runner-Up; winner and select runners up will be exhibited at Focus on the Story 2019 and published in a year-end “best of” book.
