Show us the elements that abstract into light, texture, shape and shadow.

Understanding shape and form is one of the pillars of photography composition, and it can make even the most mundane objects become an object of art in its own right. Geometric, organic, positive or negative, shapes influence the degree of aesthetic beauty perceived when we first look at a photograph.

Send us your best photographs where shapes may not just influence the image, but where it may also be the subject solely.
Whether in architecture, portrait, landscape, nude, street or any other form of photography - classic or experimental: we're open to all genres and we want to discover the best and most interesting projects from all over the world.

Please send us a cohesive body of work or portfolio. Only a unified group of photos will be published in AAP Magazine. Images that were previously published in AAP Magazine cannot be submitted again.

Winners will receive $1,000 in cash awards, their winning image(s) or full portfolio published in AAP Magazine Vol.59, extensive press coverage and global recognition.

All winners will have their work published in the 59th printed issue of AAP Magazine, a free copy of the magazine and their portfolio showcased in the Winners Gallery of www.all-about-photo.com.


All selected winners will also receive:
• Publication in the 59th printed issue of AAP Magazine
• A complimentary copy of the magazine
• Featured placement in the Winners Gallery on www.all-about-photo.com
• Worldwide visibility across All About Photo's digital platforms and social media channels

AI-generated images are not permitted in this competition.
