The application deadline for the International Photo Festival Leiden closed on August 22nd, after an extension of one week. In total, some 272 photographers submitted their work, unparalleled!
3 members of the jury made a preselection of 93 photographers. On August 31, the other 4 jury members narrowed this down to the final selection of 20 photographers. These are the nominees for the overall winner, who will receive a reward € 1.000. The winner will be announced at the opening of the Festival on October 11.
We will show a preview of the nominees via Facebook. At the same time we are preparing our installation at Photoville New York, where the 20 nominees will be shown in a special sea container.
