Historic Photographer of the Year 2019
Trip Historic and All About History are once again looking for your incredible shots of the world’s greatest historic sites
Entries for the awards are now open
The annual Historic Photographer of the Year Awards is back, searching for the finest photographic talent, inspired by historical sites around the globe. Embarking on the third year of the awards, online historical travel guide Trip Historic will be taking both professional and amateur entries that celebrate the very best historic places and cultural sites across the globe. From grand, iconic architecture, to quiet, lesser-known locations, this year’s judging panel will be looking for not only stunning, technically brilliant photography, but also an engagement with the story of the subject and its importance in our past. By taking part, entrants will get the chance to win an array of prizes including a money-can’t-buy behindthe-scenes heritage experience from Historic England and the opportunity to have their short film broadcast on the television channel HISTORY™ for all the world to see!
This year the Awards will include specialist categories focusing on crucial periods and regions of history, including the Historic England category and the HISTORY™ Short Filmmaker award. Official partners include History of War’s sister title, All About History magazine, as well as HISTORY®, Historic England and The Association For Historical And Fine Art Photography.
