Submissions are now being invited for the Terry O'Neill Award.

After a successful inaugural year, this year's Award ceremony and exhibition will be held in London, at the newly refurbished galleries in Fulham Palace.

Terry O'Neill says, "We are grateful to our sponsors, TAG Worldwide, Fulham Palace Galleries, the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and Hotshoe for helping us to expand this exciting new contemporary Award. Photography in the UK is going through a very exciting and innovative period, as last year's results proved. We aim to help build a platform for our great new photographers and to bring some recognition of their work to a wider audience. Thanks also go to the Sunday Times Magazine for publishing last years top 10 shortlist which proved to bring them opportunities"

Submissions of between three and six images are asked for, falling into criteria of reportage, documentary, creative, fashion, wildlife, landscape, portraiture, or fine art photography. The judges will be seeking dynamic and arresting images which portray a compelling narrative.
