Social Documentary:
Social documentary photography is the recording of what the world looks like, with a social and/or environmental focus, and aims to draw the public’s attention to ongoing social or environmental issues. It is often associated with the photographer providing a critical review / assessment of these issues and how people act on them. In these cases, the photographer also often advocates for the people impacted, trying to draw the public’s attention to the topic documented. Images need to be black and white (grey tonal range) and not toned with any colour.
NOTE: You should upload your entries no later than 11:59am Friday after the previous Competition night.
e.g. To enter the July Competition, you need to upload your entries into MPC no later than 11:59am Friday in June after competition night.
