To celebrate Shutter Hub’s 10th year, we’re inviting photographers to be a part of our online exhibition exploring the theme of ‘TEN’.
Hold your breath and count to ten… or don’t. We’re open to your interpretations, literal, metaphorical or nostalgic.
You might share something from your archive – what’s happened for you in the past 10 years? Moments you’d like to commemorate, some that you’d like to forget. A hidden message, an obvious revelation, multiples of ten, 10am, a ten-second idea or a ten-minute exposure.
TEN aims to showcase a range of creative and diverse images widely exploring the number ten, and what it means to you. The possibilities are endless.
In the run up to the exhibition, we’ll also be sharing submitted images throughout the call for entries on our social media and blog, so it’s worth entering as soon as you’re ready and making the most of it.
We’re making this opportunity affordable for all photographers, there are no set entry fees for TEN, we’re asking you to ‘pay what you can’. Please help support the work we do by sharing this opportunity with other photographers. We receive no external grants or funding, but we’re determined to do what we can to keep photography open to all.
You don’t have to be a Shutter Hub member to take part, but if you’d like to find out about all the benefits of being a Shutter Hub member, you can do so here.
Deadline: 11 April 2024 (5pm UK time)
Each photographer can submit up to 10 images. These can be from a series or individual images.
