Finalists are featured on the website and each month, the best photo is printed in Popular Photography magazine, which by the way, has a readership of over 2 million. That's pretty good exposure for your photograph. There's also prizes for the top three photographers.
The magazine also runs a monthly Photo Challenge which, in the past, has included: adventure photography, concert photos and images taken at dawn or dusk. You'll find details of the latest photo challenge at the website below.

Editor's Note: Just a bit extra about Popular Photography...I've subscribed to this magazine (from Australia) in the past and if you're wanting to improve your photography, there's plenty to learn each month. Currently (Feb 2012), Australians can subscribe via the PopPhoto.com website for $31.93 Australian dollars for 12 issues. At $2.66 an issue delivered to your door, that's pretty good value.
In the US, a yearly subscription is $14 and in Canada $22.

ReplyDeleteThanks Anonymous. You make a very good point. Photographers need to read the terms and conditions carefully before entering a photo competition. Have a look at the article "Protect your copyright" (You'll see a link in the right hand column under the "Pages" heading.)
ReplyDeleteYeah
ReplyDeleteit wouldn't be fair if we didn't get any credit for the photograph we took
