Photographers can submit their work to the OrthPhoto Awards contest until July 2

The Orthodox photography website OrthPhoto.net has launched a new photo contest aimed to promote Orthodoxy through photography: OrthPhoto Awards. Participants, either amateur or professional, can submit their work until July 2.

The contest has the following four categories: Places, Reportage, People, Details. There are also three special categories: From the Archives, Stories, Covid-19.

Participants are welcome to submit up to three photographs per category, with a series of 5-10 photos being accepted for the “Stories” special category.

Only photographs depicting places of worship belonging to mutually recognised canonical Eastern Orthodox Churches will be accepted for upload/competition. Photos that are likely to present, create or develop tensions will be automatically rejected.

An award ceremony, together with a workshop on photography is planned for August in Poland.

The best photos and those receiving awards will be published in an exhibition and album entitled “Colours of Orthodoxy” which will be edited and printed by the Publishing Department of the Church of Poland.
