➜ Portrait – The image must feature or reflect the essence of a person or group of people and be photographed by the Applicant. Group portraits, self-portraits,s, and collages are accepted. We encourage all photographic styles and interpretations of photographic portraiture.
➜ Landscape – Our approach to ‘landscape’ is comprehensive and encompasses ‘large vista’ images of the natural environment (land or sea), and urban or industrial settings. It may include people, but these should be ‘incidental’ rather than the main subject matter. We encourage all photographic styles and interpretations of ‘landscape’.
➜ Environmental – Images should highlight specific issues, elements,s or people impacting the natural world and our environment’s well-being. Including, but not limited to, human-induced climate change, biodiversity and habitat loss, sustainable practices, pollution, ocean acidification, and micro-diversity.
