The “Prix de la Photographie, Paris” (Px3) strives to promote the appreciation of photography, to discover emerging talent, and introduce photographers from around the world to the artistic community of Paris. People from over 85 countries entered the contest this year.

All entries are pre-screened by Px3 one week after the final deadline on MAC 20″ calibrated monitors. Mailed entries are viewed under daylight corrected lights. Px3 may request digital files or scan mailed entries for official judging.

Official judging is done over several weeks by our distinguished jury of experts. We ask our jury to view the entries on Apple monitors. The jury rates each entry from one to hundred (one being the lowest). The scores are then tallied and the winners are selected. The judges this year included the curator to the Photography library congress in Washington, the photo editor of New York Times, the world picture editor of National Geographic, the Director of Magnum in Paris and many others.
