About this opportunity

This photography competition invites self-portraits that explore identity through honesty, vulnerability, and emotional depth—beyond mere likeness. Submissions should reflect a personal, introspective point of view, embracing conceptual, documentary, or experimental approaches. Juried by Douglas Beasley, the exhibition celebrates the human presence in photographic storytelling.
