“Living Faces” — Not as statues, not in photos, living human faces! [...]
“After Dark” — After sunset and before sunrise. [...] 
“Tracks” — This topic can be widely interpreted. We’ll leave it up to the photographer to define and “sell” what “Tracks” means to them. [...]

“Time” — Here’s a challenge to capture and express time in a unique way, but not necessarily photographing a clock. The image needs to express the presence of time; past and present or future (that one makes your brain hurt). Get creative!

The key to good HDR is controlling the effect so an image doesn’t have an unrealistic appearance, unless you want it to. In some cases, it may be difficult for the judge to determine whether it was done as an HDR. [...] 
“Broken” –This topic can be widely interpreted. We’ll leave it up to the photographer to define what “Broken” means to them. The judge will be asked to keep an open mind but it is up to the photographer to sell their definition to both the judge and viewer. [...] |
