The 2013 Ocean Art Underwater competition now accepting images

August 6, 2013

The Ocean Art Underwater competition is one of the largest underwater photography competitions in terms of prizes.

According to PR Web, this year they announced that it is giving away $75,000 in prizes.

The competition has 12 categories, including a Novice dSLR category and 3 compact camera categories, giving underwater photographers of all levels a chance to win a great prize. Unique categories include SuperMacro, Cold/ Temperate Water, Nudibranchs, and Divers/ Fashion. The more traditional categories include Wide-Angle, Macro, Marine Life Portraits, and Marine Life Behavior.

Winners will first be able to rank the prizes they would like to receive, making it more likely for winners to receive a prize they want. Then the winners from each category will be awarded a package at a resort or on a live-aboard.

The judges for this competition are world-renowned underwater photographers Martin Edge, Marty Snyderman, Tony Wu, and Todd Winner.

Photos must be submitted on or before the deadline on November 10, 2013.
