We are excited to invite photographers for inclusion in the next SPACE Open Exhibition this February. Find all the information and requirements here…

Update 12 Feb, 2018: Submissions have now closed.

We are extremely excited to launch our first SPACE Open Exhibition for 2018! Once again we are offering you, our lovely photographic community the opportunity to submit your work! The show opens on February 15th and will feature 30 curated images selected by the Orms creative team. The exhibition will form part of a unique public-participation exhibition offered by the Orms Cape Town School of Photography, which will showcase work themed “I want to show you something”.

Exhibition Theme: Aerial Photography

We invite you to enter your very best “aerial images”. It doesn’t matter what the subject of your image is, as long as it’s been shot from an elevated perspective. Everyday scenes look totally different from the air, and with so much beauty surrounding us here in South Africa, we’d love to see what you’ve captured. As always we encourage you to get as creative as you like, so feel free to play with shapes, colours and different angles. Please note that you do not need to own a drone to take part, images taken from an elevated point; for example, a view of a valley, a road or a cityscape would also qualify. Naturally, so would any images taken from a plane/helicopter etc.

The exhibition will open at the Orms Cape Town School of Photography on February 15th, 18h00 – 20h00. Everyone is most welcome, so please make a note in your diary, we would love to see you there.
