ABOUT THE COMPETITION

WIN-Initiative's 10 BEST 10 International Competition is about recognizing the next best talent from all corners of the globe. This contest is especially for photo artists inspired by mobile devices and all the "out of the box" thinkers out there. In fact, this 10 BEST 10 is a showcase of the very best of contemporary photography from ANY artist with ANY camera. We're talking from iPhones to Pinholes, Polaroids to Droids and Holgas to Hassleblads. Oh, and ANY subject matter, but we're mostly interested in cutting edge and very personal work. WIN provides an opportunity for editorial exposure plus a peer review of your work by esteemed judges, each influential in their field of expertise. Winners will be selected on the basis of concept and originality, as well as coherence in style regardless of camera choice.
