View the full exhibition gallery here!
Congratulations to the top 4 winners, the top 100 photographers, and all who participated in this year's contest & exhibition! All 800 image submissions were blindly rated by our incredible panel of 10 judges, and these four rose to the top! They collecctively won over $40,000 in prizes, and we couldn't be happier for them! If you missed the Opening Night Livestream & celebration, don't worry, we recorded it! We'll publish that video as soon as it's ready so you can hear for yourself from the Top 4, the APA SF Board and Director.
We'd also like to congratulate the photographers of the Top 100 images!
