gurushots5Join free challenges run by award-winning photographers on Gurushots.

Join A Challenge

gurushots1Gurushots is a platform for photographers with a competitive side. The site hosts several different types of photography challenges, all of which are free to join but could result in a monetary reward. The challenges are all hosted by talented professionals, and they typically consist of a simple yet creativity-inspiring prompt. Timothy Sutherland’s challenge “Juxtaposition,” for instance, asks users to use “the placement of two objects close together or in such a fashion as to define a story, comparison or contrast.” That’s a relatively vague description, but it leaves it open to the photographers’ interpretation. If you have the talent, you could win money by submitting to the challenges.

If you submitted to a challenge, you can also track your ranking in real time via Gurushots’ analytics system. It’s both fun and easy to join challenges, making Gurushots a useful platform for photographers who want to practice their skills while connecting with other professionals in the active community.
