About:
For almost two centuries, night photography has captured the creative imagination. There is a long photographic tradition of capturing the scenes and moods of the night and low light. From the 19th century long exposures, to high-speed color films and digital technology, the subject of night has inspired many contemporary artists.
There is a certain psychology of the night. The night can be an incredibly suggestive time. Mystery, introspection, quiet or loud, and behaviors not abiding by the mainstream rules of the day, with the darkness useful for creating mystery or an unnerving atmosphere. Scenes we overlook during the day often take on a fascinating new appearance at night – in a literal or abstract way.
Urban street scenes, portraits, documentary, landscapes, conceptual, still life … All subjects, genres, capture types, color or black & white are welcome for submission.
Show us life at night, the night’s effect on the mind, the body, the nature or the city, as well as self-expression afforded in times when most are asleep.
