HIPA International Photography Award 2021-2022

If you are a nature photographer who believes that nature tells a story with each image, this competition is for you. The topic of the HIPA 2021-2022 competition is nature, with its unique past, present, and future. Season 11 of the HIPA Photo Contest has three distinct categories for photographers. The first category, photo portraits, is a popular genre of photography that is distinguished by the observation and recording of people and their emotions. This is a lifetime experience opportunity for a photographer to reveal the world hidden behind human faces and their individuality. The second competition category is a portfolio in which the photographer must deliver a unique and significant story to a large audience. The third category is general, which has long been a favourite of participating photographers since it allows them to express themselves freely.
