Canon Shine – Photo Competition – Australia

These days, we’re taking more photos than ever. But between all the selfies, lunch snaps, and blurred party photos, it’s also never been harder for an image to really connect with people. Canon Shine is a competition that’s giving Australians the opportunity to change that. This is your chance to capture a powerful image that makes people think, or feel, or see things differently.

So find something that inspires you, or ignites your passion. In return, Canon Shine could shine a light on your story – and bring your work to the eyes of people all over Australia.

What’s the Prize?

If you’re the lucky winner, Canon’ll shine a light on what matters to you by:
a. Bringing your image to life through a national advertising campaign.
b. Featuring your entry in a two month display in the NSW State Library, Sydney.
c. Creating a documentary about your journey to capture your image, which will be shared to inspire people all across Australia.
d. Covering all costs associated with the making of the documentary including accommodation, food and travel within Australia.

9. How is the winner chosen?

The public will vote their favourites – so make sure you share your work on social media to get some support behind you. We’ll narrow it down to the 50 photos with the most votes – and after that, an expert panel will choose one winner.

All entries close at 12 noon AEST on 26th May 2014.
