About the event

The New York Center for Photographic Art (NYC4PA) invites photographers world-wide to submit images using any photographic process (print, image transfer, emulsion transfer, encaustic, black and white, color etc.).

WATER:

“Water under the bridge”, “Water water everywhere”

So many sayings reference water, songs as well.  Water, of late a critical concern in our environment, is so very central to much of our lives. In addition, it is beautiful to photograph. This call is about how you, the photographer, capture water. Is it a thundering waterfall? Is it glistening droplets from a puppy shaking itself off, a surfer caught in the curl, or a reflection in a city pond? Maybe you used a slow shutter to create the soft image of flowing water in a stream. Teardrops, raindrops, dew drops .... ice floes, waterfalls, rapids and serene lakes. The list goes on. Black and white, color, abstract - all 2D mediums are welcome.

EXHIBITION AND AWARDS:

There will be 10 cash prizewinners, 20 Juror Selections and 20 Honorable Mentions

CASH PRIZES: Grand Prize: One photographer will receive $1,100.  The image will be featured on the home page of the NYC4PA website.

First Prize: 3 photographers will receive $400.

Second Prize: 3 photographers will receive $325.

Third Prize: 3 photographers will receive $250.

ONLINE GALLERY, CATALOG and AWARD CERTIFICATE:

All prizewinners will be included in both the online gallery and catalog and be presented with a certificate.

ELIGIBILITY:

This Call for Entries is open worldwide to both amateur and professional photographers.  NYC4PA invites photographers working in all mediums, styles and schools of thought to participate. Experimental and mixed techniques are welcome. Only 2-D work is eligible.

IMAGES SELECTED FOR A PRIZE IN A PREVIOUS NYC4PA CALL FOR ENTRY WITHIN THE PAST TWO YEARS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE.  IF THEY ARE SUBMITTED AND SELECTED BY THE JUROR THEY WILL BE DISQUALIFIED. IMAGES PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED THAT WERE NOT SELECTED FOR A PRIZE MAY BE RESUBMITTED AT ANY TIME.

TO ENTER:

The entry fee is $35 for the first three images. Additional images may be submitted for $10 each. There is no limit to the number of images submitted.

Prepare your images as follows

- JPG files are preferred with the longest side a minimum of 1,280 pixels. Smaller files are fine - you will see your uploaded image as soon as you submit it. If it is clear to you it will be fine for the juror. ​

- Select a unique name for each image so you can identify images when we send notification. Tea Glass1 Tea Glass 2 can be difficult.   Two images with the exact same name and then a paragraph description as difficult.

- We prefer shorter names.

- Filenames with special characters may not load properly

- If you are working in Photoshop, and are using the image size screen, the file size indicated at the top is the size before any compression applied in the save process.  Please save the file as a JPG and then look at the file size.  It should be perfect.
