Black & White Photography Awards!

Love Black & White?
This one’s for you.

LensCulture is thrilled to announce the return of our Black & White Photography Awards!

We’re seeking remarkable photographic work that plays with the dynamic relationship between light, dark and all the tones in between. Texture, shape, line and form are often hailed as the heroes of black and white photography. Show us how you’re interpreting these design elements (or abandoning them altogether!) to create contemporary monochrome images and series.

Through this competition, our aim is to uncover photographers from diverse backgrounds and experience levels, and connect them with global audiences and career-changing opportunities. This year, we’re thrilled to exhibit the winners in New York City during the inaugural Paris Photo New York, an international fair dedicated to photography!

Scroll down for more information about the exhibition, award benefits, our international jury and our free entry option for single image submissions (Free Entry Deadline: 25 September).

Don’t forget, if you enter a series or 5+ images you’re eligible for a free submission review - submit today to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity for feedback and growth!

Abandoned Buildings

Abandoned Buildings
Submit your photos for free
Deadline: Thursday September 19, 2019
Life keeps evolving. People move from one place to another looking for more modern places that will house their needs. The buildings of the past remain empty, standing alone, narrating their stories to anyone who has the time or the mood to listen to them. Each building a different story, yet the same as the final reslult remains the same. Places not serving any purpose any more, left alone to remind people of a different era when things were different from what they are now, to contribute to our knowledge of the past.
We are interested in seeing such abandoned buildings from different parts of the world, each telling its own story. All means accepted.


Choices Announced: Monday September 23, 2019
Exhibition: Friday November 1 – Wednesday November 13, 2019
