If your camera is your voice and color is your language this is where you need to be.

A global call for photographers who use color not as decoration but as a weapon to provoke, to disturb, and to leave a mark that cannot be ignored.

If your photos don’t blow up the screen this contest isn’t for you because we’re not looking for “pretty” we want impact risk truth or madness and it doesn’t matter if you shoot an intimate portrait a filthy corner a stray dog or a building that looks like it’s floating what matters is that the color says something that it explodes unsettles or grabs you without asking permission we want photographers who don’t apologize images that don’t explain themselves compositions that don’t repeat what’s already been done and if your hands are shaking better turn off the camera and come back when you have something to say because at the Color Awards 2025 there’s no room for the lukewarm
this is for those who take risks who shoot with their guts and edit with fire who turn color into a scream or a whisper but never into decoration so if you’ve got that photo no one dares to publish that series you shelved because it didn’t fit that experiment you weren’t sure worked or felt too strange this is the place this is your door and it’s open but not for everyone only for those who come to break it down.
