FASHION / PORTRAITURE

Channel your inner Annie Leibovitz and give us some close-ups; self-portraits welcome.

DOCUMENTARY / PHOTOJOURNALISM

From the prayer rituals of Tibetan monks to the local demise of a farming community, show us the issues, people and events in your periphery.

STILL LIFE

A glowing bowl of edamame or your mother's Tiffany lamp-if it's stationary, it counts.

TRAVEL / LANDSCAPE

Spring break in Mexico, studies abroad in Australia and camping trips-we want to see where you've been.

FINE ART / PERSONAL WORK

Your chance to get all avant-garde on us-the offbeat, unique and beautiful work that doesn't fit in the above categories.
