Photographer of the Year

Prizes worth £30,000 in total are up for grabs in our free‑to-enter competition!

Digital Camera’s 2019 Photographer of the Year contest is now open for entries! This is your chance to test your photographic skills and take home some incredible prizes courtesy of our sponsors mpb.com and Affinity Photo, as well as Rohan, Sony, Rotolight and CEWE. There are 10 categories to choose from, with the judges choosing winners for each theme as well as an overall winner – who will bag £7,100 worth of prizes alone. Photographic challenges this year include a fine blend of traditional favourites – Black & White, Portraits, Travel – and more specific themes, including Smartphone and Water. The opening dates are staggered, with Urban Landscape and Wildlife & Nature now open until 23 August. www.photocrowd.com/dcpoty
