You could win an amazing black QX100, a VIP trip for two to the Sony World Photography Awards ceremony in London next spring, stunning SWPA books and a year’s free membership to the World Photography Organisation.
This month’s theme is ‘Street Photography’. To inspire you, why not watch this Masterclass in street photography from Paolo Mezzera, shortlisted photographer from the Sony World Photography Awards 2013.
Remember, you’re only one shot away from winning our monthly photography competition! All you have to do is upload your photographs to the Competition gallery here, and tag them with your country label.
Good luck!
