Wow! What a contest!
Who wouldn’t want a chance at winning a million dollars for their best portrait?
The contest is open to amateur or professional photographers, aged 18 or over from anywhere in the world. So, why not take a chance, and enter your best shot?
The Details
The largest digital photography competition in history, the Million Dollar Portrait Prize photo contest is here, and the theme for submissions is ‘portraits’. Entrants can submit a photo of any composition under this theme, where the subject is one or more persons, and their face/faces are the predominant focus.
Contest Summary
Try to present a story with your photo. The best part about taking portraits is that people’s faces always tell stories. Some stories are sad while others inspire happiness and joy. The story you present depends, once again, on how you plan to create your composition. But, considering that you are participating in the photo competition, you should make storytelling a priority. Everybody loves an image that tells a thousand words, so you will definitely manage to impress if you end up capturing such an image. Of course, such a portrait does not come easy and you might have to take a lot of photos, of numerous people, until you find the face that is telling the desired story. This might also mean taking photos of strangers walking down the street, if you consider their face expressive enough.
Photos will be judged on originality, technical excellence, composition, overall impact and artistic merit.
