Theme: "Echoes of Home"

For this year’s award, we invite you to explore how photography can be used as a medium for rediscovery and connection with one another, the environment, as well as the idea of home.

The competition is not about finding that extraordinary or decisive shot but rather about offering your unique perspective on everyday life — the things that often go unseen and overlooked, the little moments that make a place truly “feel like home.”.

Through your eyes (and lens), we hope to visualise what defines home to you and to others, exploring the interrelationships between people, their environments, and their origins.
