is an international competition seeking the best portrait photography from all the corners of the world. The competition is
open to everything. All points of view, all levels of expertise and all ideas of portraiture.
From fine art to spontaneous selfies, from hyper-perfect photoshopped portraits to seductive
(and often fictitious)social media profile pics, to mobile phone snaps altered with digital nostalgia filters. Some are candid, some are staged, some are outrageous and silly, others are just plain beautiful.
