Hyères Photography 2010

Any budding photographers should seriously consider entering the Hyères International photography competition. The competition showcases ten emerging photographic talents, which are picked from the submissions they receive.

Despite being twinned with a fashion design competition, you can submit work from any genre of photography. Both competitions are unique in that they include an open discussion by the panel of judges in front of an audience. Given that past judges have included Mark Sanders (Another Magazine), Jorg Koch (032C) and Kathy Ryan (The New York Times) anyone lucky enough to make it the final ten stands a pretty good chance of opening some doors to future work.

The deadline for entry is 15th of November, for more information go to: www.villanoailles-hyeres.com/hyeres2010

Dear members,

We have set up a Flickr group for you to upload your photos. (Click on Gallery for link)

To upload your photos, you first have to sign up as a Flickr member online which is free of charge. From there you can join our group.

The Flickr group acts as our online gallery to share photography works from members to the public. We will select a few photos from it to feature in our publication and even sell some of it.

Alejandra Laviada (b. 1980) doesn't just capture an image, she builds them. Her unique approach of documenting found objects in demolished or redeveloped areas alter our conception of everyday objects and suggest stories of the people who inhabited these spaces.

The series Photo Sculptures has won a prestigious award and has been exhibited widely in Mexico and U.S.A. . Check out her online portfolio to see more of her beautifully sculpted works of art.
