Call for Entries - Photography Contest

This call for entry is open to amateur and professional photographers and videographers from around the world. This call is organised by the MontPhoto Association.

Our mission is to add value and help spread the art of photography in order to raise awareness and protect nature. The photography contest rewards the photographic excellence of its participants. We are seeking innovative and inspiring images that share new perspectives, original stories, unknown places, surprising behaviours or new interpretations of what is already known to us.

MontPhoto is committed to respecting nature. Submitted work presented for this photography contest must show natural situations respecting the authenticity of the scenery, conserving the living beings in their habitat and by all means avoiding their suffering and the disruption or interference with their behaviour.

The MontPhoto Association is a non-profit organisation, in accordance with Spanish law, and can therefore not benefit financially from its activities. Any budgetary variation will always be used in that regard.
