This Year’s Categories & Themes
PORTFOLIO
Encounters
The travel experience is enhanced by the encounters we have along the way; encounters with people in the countries we visit, with other travellers, and with and between wildlife.
PORTFOLIO
Amazing Places
What are the most amazing places you’ve been to on your travels? What made them so amazing?
Amazing Places
PORTFOLIO
World In Motion
Travel, transport and motion go hand in hand. This portfolio gives you scope to show us your journey, how you travelled or some of the movement you encountered when you got there.
NEW TALENT
Sell It!
Great travel photography sells the dream. The image is more powerful than the word and good travel photography can transport you to a destination or take you on a journey.
ONE SHOT
Adventures
Adventure is exciting, uplifting, inspiring and sometimes challenging. In this category we want you to take up the challenge and involve us with your adventure.
FIRST SHOT
Festival of Colour
