Photo Contest 2012 – Google thinks great art deserves great exposure. So they are teaming up with Saatchi Gallery, London to offer student photographers around the globe a chance to showcase their work on the worldwide stage.
If you are a student aged 18 years or older then this contest is for you. Pick from one of 10 categories below and submit up to 8 of your best shots
Me : Show images that best capture you — moments with friends and family, dancing with your dog, or your favorite pair of beat-up sneakers
Food: Shots that tantalize — from mouthwatering ingredients to dishes to die for.
Travel : Take us there with photos of your travels that give us a sense of place and culture.
Fashion : Here’s your chance to stroll the catwalk and reveal your fashion sense.
Action : Action takes many forms—whether it’s the raw speed of a racetrack or the gentle ripple of a waterbug on a still pond.
Street : Capture the urban vibe with big city boulevards, tree-lined avenues, or the street where you live.
Sport : Bring your A game. Show us the passion, excitement, and athleticism of sport.
Night : Keep us in the dark or light up the night. Any natural night view is eligible.
Sound/Silence : What does sound look like? Can you show us in a photo?
