Few names in photography are as esteemed as Magnum Photos. The photography cooperative is a who’s who of photography, spanning the generations from Capa and Cartier-Bresson to modern masters like Alec Soth and Paolo Pelligrin.

So we’re very excited that Magnum Photos asked PhotoShelter to be a part of their Magnum Expression Photography Award “with the goal of raising awareness and inspiring change through campaigns using photography as an expressive medium.” Along with HP and Blurb, the award will celebrate the concept of “communities,” and unlike other contests, there is no submission fee to enter the Expression Award.

Did I mention the $10,000 prize and HP Z3200 printer?

The jury is composed of Magnum photographers Jonas Bendiksen, Susan Meiselas, Alec Soth and Paolo Pelligrin.

Get all the nitty gritty details on The Magnum Expression Award website, and start submitting your 8-15 photos now. We look forward to seeing some stellar work!
