MontPhoto 2021
Welcome to Montphoto’s 2021 International Nature Photography and Video Contest, open to photographers and videographers will it be amateurs and professionals around the world and organised by the MontPhoto Association.
Our mission is to give value and promote the audio and visual arts and to contribute to the defense of nature.
The contest rewards the excellence of stills and videos. We are looking forward to see innovating and inspiring images and videos of original stories, unknown places, new perspectives of living beings, surprising behaviours or new interpretations of what is already known to us. We look for a glimpse that documents the diversity, beauty, mystery and fragility of life on our planet.
MontPhoto stands for respect towards Nature and that is why the work presented to this contest must truly show natural situations, respecting the authenticity of the scenery, conserving the living beings in their habitat and by all means avoiding their suffering and the disruption or interference with their behaviour.
