Now in its ninth year, the

International Landscape Photographer of the Year Awards

is allowing all landscape photographers to share a total of 10,000 USD in cash prizes. The judges are looking for photographs that epitomise the art and craft of landscape photography.

Digital image files should measure between 4000 and 5000 pixels on the longest side, 300 dpi, be saved as a JPEG

(recommended setting 9 or 10)

, in AdobeRGB colour space. There is a maximum file size of 6MB.

There are no limits on post-production, but entries presented for judging must be photographic in origin

(taken with a camera)

. Your entry must have been photographed on or after January 1, 2019. There’s no limit to the number of images you can enter.

Remember, technique and craft are just as important as creativity for the top awards.

Entry fee is 25 USD per image, but for every four paid submissions the fifth one is free

(not for late entries, after October 14, 2022)
