The Fourth Annual Monster Children Photo Competition has commenced!
We are giving the world’s shutterbugs the chance to enter their best photographic work and win the big bucks. How many big bucks? Lots of big bucks. This year we’re giving away a whopping TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS! That’s right, $25,000 in prize money is up for grabs—all you have to do is take a really, really, really good photo and we’ll hand over the loot AND feature your work in the Photo Annual! Not only that, we’ll even feature the work of the people who weren’t as good as you (the runners-up) in the Photo Annual too, although their photos will appear significantly smaller than yours. All finalists will have the chance to see their work at the New York City and Sydney Photo Annual exhibitions.

So, what are we looking for? We’re looking for the best of the best, obviously. We want to uncover photographers who are doing the most interesting and innovative work in the world. Is that you? No? What about her, is it her? Maybe it’s her. There are six categories to enter your work in:
• Travel sponsored by Corona Extra
• Music sponsored by Levis®
• Girls sponsored by D’Blanc
• Action sponsored by Leica
• Lifestyle sponsored by Bulleit Bourbon
• Student sponsored by Monster Children
And who is judging this thing?
Photographic submissions will be heavily scrutinized by a team of experts and industry professionals including, and absolutely limited to, Monster Children founders Chris Searl and Campbell Milligan. Entrants who pass this initial appraisal will have their names written on index cards and put into a hat. The winners will then be drawn from the hat with a fishing rod and a blob of chewing gum.
What about the prizes?
The winner in each of the first five categories will take home $5,000, and he or she may spend as he or she wishes (food, drugs, leather goods, anything). The winner of the student category will NOT receive $5,000, but will be awarded a prize pack put together by the event sponsors, as well as a lifetime subscription to Monster Children.
You may enter your work in as many categories as you like and as many times as you like.
Once we approve your submitted photo, you will receive an email thanking you for your submission and confirming your image has been thoroughly examined and approved by the aforementioned judges. This email also signifies that your work is now online for the world to see. Entries close September 18. Check it out. Share it. Tell your friends.
