Photography contests

by

Contests are great and everyone wishes they would win. Contests are also a great way for a photographer to get exposure to their work. With the World Wide Web there are thousands of photographers, artists, painters, etc out there wanting to get noticed. So how do you get noticed in this Digital age. Enter as many contests as you can. Look over your photos find the best ones you have. Edit them to prefection and enter the contest. Remember though most of the contests you enter will not let you enter a photo that is already enetered into a contest. In other words you cannot enter the same photo is several contests you might get disqualified. The more you enter the more chances you have of winning. And the more exposure you have. Some contests have weekly drawings, some are monthly and some are yearly. Read the fine lines and the contest details for all the rules and you will do fine.
In the world of Photography the most currents ones that are still going on are as follows. This is a great way for amateur and professionals alike to get exposure for themselves.
Listed are some of the sites from a search for photography contests.

International Library of Photography has a $10,000 amateur photography contest. I checked out the site it did not specify a closing date for the contest though.

SOAPhoto Contest has a monthly contest where they pick 4 winners per month 1 per category the prizes are new digital cameras and other things.

DP Challenge has weekly contests this site is kind of confusing, it appears to me like a DIGG site for photos. But still a great place to get exposure and get your name out.

Better Photo has a monthly contest that offers prizes. You can submit one photo per day.
