The story behind an image and the reasons why it was created are as important as the image itself. Our judges are looking for three things:

1. Creativity and visual impact 

  • Strong visual impact 
  • Thoughtful/considered composition 
  • Use of colour (or intentional lack thereof) to enhance impact   

2. Storytelling 

  • Strong visual story that centres on a health issue 
  • Clear written narrative around health or medicine 

3. Technical excellence

  • Excellent image quality for the type of imaging technique used 
  • Appropriate and skilful image manipulation/editing if used 
  • High-resolution image and size suitable for print outputs 
  • Meets criteria in terms and conditions.
