What are some good websites for teen photography contests?

Photography Contests/Competitions?

• I'm really interested in photography, (i'm 16 and i live in Asia) but it was only a hobby until now. So i'm searching for photo contests/competitions FOR TEENS. Really, i'm not searching for contests like "CANON or NIKON photography competitions" cause i know i don't stand a chance. I'm looking for more standard one, less professional one :) Does anyone know? And by preference, i'm looking for competitions in Asia, but international ones would be good too. Hope someone will help me, cause really i want to understand photography more and get serious about it.

• Answer:

  Are you looking for 'just for fun' contests or a contest where you might win something substantial in the end? If your looking for a few 'for fun' contests where the most your going to 'win' are some comments, maybe a flashy badge, or placement on a groups front page, I'd suggest heading over to Flickr and looking for a few Groups that you feel your photos would fit well in. There are a TON of contest groups on Flickr that have a wide array of contests. Some for BW's, portraits, scenery, leading lines, bright colors, and pretty much anything you can think of. Heres a few I've found.... http://www.flickr.com/groups/shutter-bug/ http://www.flickr.com/groups/royalgroup/ http://www.flickr.com/groups/seen_in_ruths_photo_contest/ http://www.flickr.com/groups/portrait-gallery/
