Faces Photography Competition

This competition is now closed

This month's competition concentrates on the human face. We encourage entrants to submit images which show expression: happiness, sadness, fear, anger, seduction, surprise.

Remember that good lighting is essential to bring out the beauty of the subject and also placement of the head is also vital in creating a memorable image, these include: Full Face, 2/3 Face and Profile.

Photofinishing and postproduction are also essential and those extra moments spent putting in the finishing touch can pay dividends.

Photo Quote: As I became aware that all things have unique spatial and temporal qualities which visually define and relate them, I began to perceive the things I was photographing not as objects but as events. Working to develop my skills of perceiving and symbolizing these event qualities, I discovered the principle of opposites. When, for example, I photographed the smooth, luminous body of a woman behind a dirty cobwebbed window, I found that the qualities of each event were enhanced and the universal forces which they manifested were more powerfully evoked. - Wynn Bullock
