Silhouettes is the theme for this months competition.

The Silhouettes Photography Competition invites photographers to explore the power of shape, contrast, and emotion through the art of shadow and light. Participants are challenged to capture striking images where outlines tell the story—whether of people, nature, architecture, or abstract forms—using creative lighting, composition, and timing. This competition celebrates the beauty of simplicity and mystery, rewarding photographs that evoke mood and meaning through minimal detail. Open to all skill levels, it offers artists a chance to showcase their ability to transform ordinary scenes into bold, dramatic, and unforgettable visual statements.
The selection guidelines for the Silhouettes Photography Competition emphasize creativity, composition, and emotional impact. Judges will evaluate how effectively each image uses contrast, lighting, and shape to convey mood and story, with special attention to clarity of form and artistic interpretation. Successful entries should demonstrate technical skill, originality, and thoughtful framing that transforms simple outlines into compelling visual narratives. While post-processing is allowed, it should enhance rather than overpower the natural beauty of the silhouette. All submissions must be the photographer’s original work and align with the competition’s theme of celebrating the expressive power of shadow and light.
