In 2022 I decided to submit some of my photographs to the Natural Landscape Photography Awards. The creators of this competition are doing a fatalistic job in promoting landscape photographs that meet certain standards in terms of not over-editing. They are also super transparent about rules and judging and send out certificate showing how each entered image did. All in all a very nice experience for the participants – I cannot recommend it enough.
Two out of six made it to the finals which was a very rewarding result for me.
