A spotlight on low light photography

1 week ago

Low light environments are a perfect opportunity for experimentation. From playing with shadows, contrasts and colours, to creatively using the available light sources and slowing down the shutter speed, photographers often end up with beautifully cinematic, moody images.

Browse through the latest Entries of the Week to discover how photographers from around the world use a variety of techniques to make their images stand out in the dark.

The monthly winner, chosen out of weekly segment, receives a 50 Image bundle to enter into the Open competition. And as for the overall winner, picked out of monthly winners? The decision will be put to the public through a People's Choice Vote, and the winning images will be shown at the major London exhibition!
