Do you spend obscene amounts of time in the dark room? And the rest of your time flipping through magazines full of brilliant photography? Are you waiting for your big break?
Then grab your SLR and start shooting.
Tomorrow, W‘s launching a contest for young photographers based around the theme,
‘Obsession’ – I’d shoot Christopher Kane’s Lolita gingham, since I’m still swooning. Each contestant can submit one photo which will be judged by a panel of experts, including W‘s Creative Director Dennis Freedman. Twenty semi-finalists will be selected and their images will be posted online and submitted to a public vote.

The lucky winner gets a feature in W magazine, a new Nikon camera and agency consultation. Plus, there’s always the ego-boost you’ll get knowing that your photograph’s sandwiched between greats like Inez & Vinoodh and Juergen Teller.
You can submit your work here starting tomorrow October 1st until December 1st. So start getting passionate.
