Life Framer is a photography award and community that sources and showcases outstanding photography from amateur to established artists. They aim to bring exposure to talented photographers from all over the world.

They run 12 monthly call for entries, each overseen by a world-renowned photographer or industry professional. Each month 20 photographers receive exposure and prizes, and at the end of the year the winners are exhibited in shows in New York, London, Rome and Tokyo.

All photographers are welcome to take part and the theme can be responded to playfully, or to the letter. There’s no rights-grabbing – photographers retain full and exclusive rights to their work.

This month’s theme is Six Continents judged by Patrick Di Nola of Getty Images.

"We spend most of our lives in a bubble – a radius of the familiar. Open your eyes to people, landscapes and cultures – here or 20,000km away. Expand our horizons!"

"We’ve pointed the compass, but feel free to go any direction you want: landscape, travel, portraiture, reportage, street, aerial… All genres welcome. Your journeys, your discoveries!"
