Action (Young APOY)

Part of Young Amateur Photographer of the Year 2022

Open Judging Results
Brief

This free-to-enter category is part of the Young Amateur Photographer of the Year 2022 awards, open to photographers aged 13-21.

One of the biggest challenges in photography is capturing movement, whether that’s freezing the action unfolding in front of you with fast shutter speeds or flash, or creating an implied sense of movement with long exposures or camera panning. Whichever technique you choose, there are a whole host of potential subjects on offer. We’d like to see your creative interpretations of movement, whether it’s people on the go, animals in motion, the dynamism of sports, or trains, planes and automobiles.

There are £3,000 (GBP) worth of vouchers to win in Young APOY 2022, supplied by sponsors, MPB, plus the title of Young Amateur Photographer of the Year 2022. Click the 'Prize details' tab for more information.
