Categories

The contest is divided into three main categories. Each category has its own theme and style, but all of them focus on strong composition, clean lighting, and a clear subject. Photographers can use a phone, digital camera, or any other camera available to them.

City Lights

This category is about night scenes, glowing signs, traffic light, building windows, reflections, and the energy of the city. The best entries use contrast, color, and timing to make a familiar place feel interesting.

Lake Sunrise

This category focuses on early morning water scenes. Photos may include reflections, docks, clouds, silhouettes, or soft sunlight. The goal is to capture a peaceful moment with natural color.

Window Portrait

This category uses window light to create portraits. Entries should show mood, expression, and respectful storytelling. A strong portrait does not need a busy background because light and expression can carry the image.
