I will give the photo marathon on Sylt this year. That can be combined with a nice weekend trip.

I have the impression that professional photographers are constantly competing for their contributions to the photo contest for amateur photographers. The pictures are just too good to be of “amateur photographers”, no matter how far you want to stretch the term. I think that’s a pity, because one of the fun in such competitions is taken.

It’s great that you also have some competitions for younger photographers and pure amateurs for 2018. This has always been a bit absent for me here.

There is also a photo competition here, which seems to be suitable for both beginners and advanced:

Besides, there are very good things to win …

Always take a good look at the eligibility requirements for some photo contests. Some get the rights to the pictures after submission. Am there in the last year with a competition bad on the nose. If you want to be absolutely sure that your pictures will not appear in the advertisement for free later, you should carefully read everything …

Usually we only list German competitions. But in this case, we will exceptionally leave the link to the competition just in the comment &# 128578;

in Venice, a photo competition is currently running, which is aimed exclusively at “amateurs” or amateur photographers:

Maybe it’s also interesting to be listed?

Thanks for the hint – we probably went through &# 128578;

Digital PHOTO Photographer of the Year 2015? you have listed as 2016, by clicking on it you get the message “until September 2015”

Thanks for the nice compilation of photo contests here. Keep coming back every now and then to look for suitable competitions. I like the Vorasuwahl very well with you – keep it up!

It is difficult to find a photo contest that is only for amateurs. It would also be difficult for the organizers to keep track of whether only amateur photographers really participate. From when do you start to be a professional? Such competition is almost impracticable. We will be blindfolded if we can find competitions that are aimed at amateur photographers. Whether there are professionals then submit their pictures is of course another matter.

Please list more photo contests for amateurs &# 128578; – In many of the competitions that are listed, amateur photographers have no chance. Would be nice, as you would list some competitions, which are intended only for hobby Knippser …

Nice list of photo contests – keep up the good work. I also think it’s very good that you already list the conditions of participation and how long you can still participate in the competition. Unfortunately, at the websites of the competitions, you often have to search for the information yourself. Please keep it that way.

Greetings and thank you,

Hui, thanks for the list of photo contests. There are really some interesting ones for me. Especially as I like to photograph subjects and people in cities and post-industrial “environments”.

desired and implemented: Today you will find the German Youth Photo Prize for 2014. This photo competition is aimed at children, adolescents and young adults and exclusively at amateur photographers. The age groups are separated.

Lists more photo competitions for children and adolescents. There are not only adult amateur photographers &# 128578;
