The International Photography Awards is an annual competition that was created to salute the achievements of the world’s finest photographers, to discover new and emerging talent, and to promote the appreciation of photography.
Recently, the category winners were announced. Out of the thousands of entries IPA received this year, only the main category winners will move on as finalists to compete for IPA's top award of International Photographer of the Year. The winner will be announced at the annual Lucie Awards which is held at the Lincoln Center, New York on October 24th, 2011.
