Photography agency called Magnum Photos has collaborated with Photography Show to bring forth ‘30 Under 30′, a brand new contest targeted at distinguishing some of the best rising documentary photographers of the world. Backed by IdeasTap, this contest would help expose the work of the young photographers into a wider network of pros.

The contest is open to photographers across the world between the age of 18 – 30; entrants are asked to give 5 documentary snaps from a narrative program. The judging team, consisting of Magnum photographers Alex Webb and David Hurn, along with Olivier Laurent from British Journal of Photography, would look for a clear concept, storyline, originality, execution, technique as well as the ability to communicate their program successfully.
