EligibilityTOP
Any photographers over the age of 18 from around the world can enter into The 3rd Eros Awards.
How it works
The 3rd Eros Awards' entry process is split into two stages.
Stage 1 entry fee is just $1 per image with the judging being carried out by the TZIPAC Editorial team. The very low entry fee is designed to encourage a broader range of artists to participate, in the hope of discovering a multitude of marvelous artworks from budding undiscovered artists as well as established professionals, without geographic boundaries or limitations. Achieving a status of Stage 1 Accepted will allow you to promote your artwork with our simplistic E-badge.
All Stage 1 Accepted images will be invited for ongoing submission to Stage 2 at a cost of $20 per image, with the total fees capped at $100. Stage 2 will be judged by our invited Juror(s) whose scores will determine the Finalists, Category Winners and the TZIPAC Fine Art Nudes Photographer of the Year.
TZIPAC look forward to seeing and showcasing the diverse and numerous artworks that will be submitted, as well as the passionate flares and creativity of participating artists.
