The ZEISS Photography Award is a highly prestigious international photo competition run jointly by ZEISS and the World Photography Organisation (WPO). This 2017 competition is the second edition of the ZEISS Photography Award ‘Seeing Beyond’, with the theme “Meaningful places”.
Our lenses enable photographers to achieve superior imaging quality, and the ZEISS Photography Award is an expression of our dedication to premium-quality photography.
The lenses are mere tools – the real value of the images is down to the photographers and their flair for creativity.

ZEISS Photography Award 2017
Pushing the limits of creativity
The motto “Seeing beyond – meaningful places” will also be used for the 2017 competition and accorded greater artistic significance. Photographers therefore have the chance to use their creative flair to lend unique places a special meaning and express this through their medium.
The goal is to push the limits of creativity and grow as photographers. They could be places with a particular historical or future value, or perhaps places that exude adventure, the wonders of nature or depict a journey to a faraway place.
Use your creative flair to lend unique places a special meaning & enter the
#ZEISS Photography Award 2017.
