Focus on the square format
In the latest Entries of the Week we spotlight 10 photographs recently entered into the Open competition which were shot in the square format. This aspect ratio is popular for minimalist compositions, drawing the viewer's eye to the centre of the image.
Enter the Sony World Photography Awards Open competition today and you could be featured in next week's selection.
Monthly winners get free Image Bundles (more entries = better chances) and compete in our Instagram People's Choice Vote. The overall Entries of the Week winner gets displayed at the London exhibition.
