Lens Culture has announced its 2010 International Exposure Awards Competition of the best in global photography. The competition is designed to find, nurture, and promote emerging as well as established talent from all over the world. It is open to all photographers working in genres ranging from documentary to fine art and fashion photography. Two categories are open for submission: Portfolio Awards and Single Image Awards.
