World Photo Day competition celebrates life’s beautiful moments

World Photo Day

CEWE, Europe’s leading photo printing company, has shared a selection of photos in conjunction with World Photo Day that celebrate life captured during lockdown and beyond.

Released to mark World Photo Day (19th August) the 20 photos are all by UK photographers and are part of CEWE’s ‘On My Doorstep’ competition, which invites entrants to share the best of what they’ve seen, created and experienced in their location over the past few months.

From scenic walks in the countryside, to precious family moments after time apart, the photos perfectly capture the best moments and sights that photographers have experienced on their doorstep in the past few months. The title image above was shot by Louise Waldron.

As part of the competition, five winners will win £50’s worth of photography equipment and will be eligible to be entered into the CEWE Photo Award 2021, the world’s largest photo competition. Now in its fourth edition, the award recently launched for entries and is open to everyone – from keen amateur photographers to established professionals.

Clare Moreton, photo expert at CEWE UK, said: “The past few months have been an unusual experience, but with many of us having more time on our hands, there’s been an explosion in photography as people look to document their experiences. It’s fantastic to see so many wonderful entrants celebrating our ‘On my doorstep’ theme and bringing to life the unique experiences we’ve all shared over the past few months.

“We’re still looking for entrants so we’d encourage everyone to share your best photos and the things you’ve seen, heard and experienced over the last few months – chances are your entry is already on your camera roll!”
