“After winning the ZEISS Photography Award, I got a lot of requests from international magazines, also the big magazines. There was a lot of international attention, all of a sudden. This award really stimulates you to do what you do, to continue working”
- Nick Hannes, winner of the 2018 ZEISS Photography Award
The fourth edition of the hugely popular ZEISS Photography Award is now open for entries. Photographers are asked to submit their best series of 5 - 10 images to the brief: 'Seeing Beyond - The Unexpected'.
