Anyone who wants to improve their work and continue to grow as a photographer should enter photographic competition. By sitting in on a competition and listening to the judges, you will learn what is important in an image and it will help you pay attention to the details in what you are shooting. While entering a competition might seem daunting at first, it's one of the best, most rewarding experiences you'll have as a professional – and as an artist.

Check out our Resources page and browse through previous award winning images as well as all the 2021 blue ribbon images on the homepage for more inspiration to help in entering image competition.

NHPPA is fortunate to have the same monitor setup used in PPA District and National competitions. We also have three Affiliate Jurors (those who judge at the district and national level) and two Jurors in Training on our panel this year. Entering your images here is a perfect way to get valuable feedback to take your photography skills to the next level and tweak those images before entering them in Northeast Districts or the International Photographic Competition (IPC).
