With the end of the year just ahead, it means our favorite contest is just around the corner, Your Best Shot 2025 is almost here! This year Your Best Shot 2025 kicks off on Monday, December 1st and it’s not one to miss! Since 2007, Your Best Shot has given Flickr members a chance to reflect on their work and select that one photo that best represents their photographic accomplishments from the past year. Our contest offers five different categories to choose from, including our ‘Open’ category. If you’d like to find some inspiration from last year’s stunning submissions, check out our Your Best Shot 2024 Winners along with our 2024 Honorable Mentions galleries.
As always, we’re offering some amazing prizes for our top picks. A winner will be chosen from each category and will win a year of Flickr Pro along with a gorgeous metal print of a photo of their choice! And for the best of the best, our judges will choose a grand prize winner from those 5 category winners. Our grand prize winner will receive a brand-new camera. And this year, we’re throwing in another awesome prize, the grand prize winner will also receive a lens with their camera of choice!
They can choose their preferred camera/lens package from these great options:
- Sony A7 IV with 28-70 f3.5-5.6 kit lens
