Travel Photography Competition

.

Do you like taking pictures during your trips?

Would you like to show off your photographic talent, promote your work and build your portfolio?

That’s great because we love receiving photos which inspire us to travel further and see more of the world’s beauty!

Travel Photography is a weekly competition in which you can share your photographs with a larger audience. The three winning shots are shown on our website with a short bio and a link to your website, Facebook page or Flickr photostream.

We give the photographers the credit they deserve!

What do I have to do?

  1. Join our Facebook page
  2. Post your TRAVEL shots on our wall with their location clearly indicated
  3. “Like” and comment on other people’s work. It’s always nice to get feedback, isn’t it?

What do I gain?

  1. International recognition.
    Our website is visited by around 10,000 people from all over the world every month and our community has approximately 7000 followers and it’s still growing.
  2. A shot bio and a link to your website.
    Many companies and private people pay money to get their name and a link on somebody else’s website.
  3. Feedback on your work.
    Every member of our community is encouraged to comment on other people’s work. This feedback helps us all to become better travel photographers.
  4. Start in our Travel Photography Competition of the Year.
    By winning one of our weekly competitions you automatically take party in the yearly contest in which you can win a valuable prize and an interview with Hitch-Hikers’ Handbook.

Rules

The three photos with the biggest amount of “likes” will be posted on our website. The competition has a 4-5 week delay so that the pictures sent later in a week will have an equal chance to get the same amount of “likes” as the ones sent at the beginning.

Each week you can post as many photos as you like but because we want to give credit to as many photographers as possible, we will publish only one photo per photographer.

What is TRAVEL photography?

Landscapes, cityscapes, monuments, places of interest, local people and their culture as well as you being on the road, travelling… The topic is very broad, we don’t want to limit you :)
