Nikon Photo Contest ends 13 February 2023


Deadline: 13 February 2023. In this contest, we want to gather single images and stories that represent today’s world. After three years of isolation and fear from the pandemic, we have new opportunities. So, think about your world the change, growth, and show us what happiness looks like now and what matters to you. I hope to see work from around the world with diverse people, subjects, and locations. This is a chance to show where we are today and tell our own stories.

Photography is a universal language. It is so powerful in the way it can bridge cultures and show us how we are more similar than we are different. I love looking at photography. I love watching videos. I love how photography is such a universal language that can bridge cultures and show us that we have more similarities than differences.

So, what might make a striking photograph for this contest? When I see imagery, I am looking to be surprised, I’m looking for beauty, and I’m looking for something that is going to really touch me and move me. For me, the most important thing is how the photograph makes me feel about what I’m looking at. I want to see beautiful compositions, wonderful light, captured moments and even new ideas and new fresh ways of seeing something that might be very common to us all.
