Winning in a known photo competition boosts a photographer's self-confidence in his works. Of course, winning grants popularity and recognition in one's work and is an existing proof of how best you are compared to others. Aside from the respect one can get from a photo competition, the challenge and enjoyment in the process is an opportunity one would like to experience. Meeting fellow photographers with different stories and getting inspired out of it contributes to such experience. Through a photography contest, the photographer is given the chance to present his work to a wide audience. The opinion of judges opens doors for the development of a photographer's work and skill.
If you decide to enter a photo competition, you can look for newspapers, magazines, local advertising (TV or radio advertising and other media), and from the internet. To share and to prove one's excellence in such field is one of the encouraging aspects of the contest. But it can also be a source of extra income for some. Starting from one competition, you may then try to join a photography contest on a regular basis to earn extra cash!
