Welcome to the Street Photography Competition
Competition Overview
The Street Photography & Visual Storytelling of Nepal competition invites young photographers to capture the soul of Nepal’s streets, markets, festivals, villages, and everyday life in a single powerful photograph. This is not just about clicking pictures – it’s about telling an authentic Nepali story through your lens in one frame. From the chaos of Asan to the morning mist in Bhaktapur, from Dashain swings to mountain porters-show us Nepal as you see and feel it. Join the photography hunt and live showcase at Embark College on January 16th, 2026.
