THE PHOTOMONTH ASSIGNMENT AWARD:

HOW IT WORKS
Once you have paid the entry fee you will be sent the assignment and full submission details.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to photomonth being a London festival, the assignment is London-based.

You must submit up to five photos by 6pm on Wednesday 24th November. Late submissions may result your photos not being shown even though you have paid your entry fee.

Entry costs £30 per person which includes a ticket to the awards. Places are limited and can only be purchased before the event.

CHOOSING THE WINNER
All submissions will be shown at the event and six shortlisted to be discussed live in front of the audience.

The panel will then choose the winner in our very own TV styled "F-STOP FACTOR".
