The Technical Image Press Association (TIPA), a renowned organization known for its global footprint in the photo and imaging domain, is launching its premier photo contest for 2023, aptly named "Picture This! Camera Shots." This contest is designed to celebrate and promote the art of photography, calling upon both professionals and passionate hobbyists to showcase their unique relationship with their photography equipment.

With a deep-rooted history in recognizing the best cameras, lenses, and other imaging products, TIPA’s latest contest presents three compelling categories for entry: "My Camera and I," which invites photographers to share self-portraits with their equipment; "My Camera in Action," focusing on photographers in the midst of their craft; and "What’s in My Camera Bag," a category that gives a glimpse into the tools and accessories photographers cherish.

This contest, beyond being a competition, is a celebration of the shared passion for the craft, and TIPA is eager to witness the myriad ways photographers from around the world engage with their gear. Through this contest, they aim to strengthen their position as a leading voice in the global photographic community.

Prize

The TIPA Photo Contest will award cash prizes with the overall winner receiving 1,500 € and each of the category winners receiving 500 €. The total cash prize is 3,000 Euros. Furthermore, winning images will be published on the TIPA website and in select TIPA member magazines and websites globally. The winners will be decided by a jury consisting of the editors of TIPA member publications.

Art is born out of passion. Fine Art photography is a perfect instrument, which allows a person to communicate with the world and share their vision. It results from the author's deep sensitivity, a need to express feelings through image.
