The contest is open to students, emerging and professional photographers, and international and local photographers, with no age limit. Earth Photo aims to identify the real story behind the photography and encourage conversations about the subjects involved. The photographs should be appropriate for all ages and demonstrate beautiful creativity. The submitted photos and films should have been completed before January 2016. There is an entry fee of $28.
