Contest Description
CB Richard Ellis’ 2009 Urban Photographer of the Year Competition – Cities as Work

The 2009 CBRE Urban Photographer of the Year Award is designed to capture the life of the built environment. Now in its second year, the competition sets a brief for photographers to explore life in towns and cities during any single hour of a 24 hour day.

As the world’s largest commercial property advisor, CBRE lives and breathes buildings and their surrounding environment.
Understanding what makes a town or a city work is essential to our thinking and we are constantly looking for fresh perspectives. That’s why we have created the Urban Photographer of the Year Award – to capture a fresh, visual interpretation of 24 hours in the working life of towns and cities.

Anyone can enter, from amateur to professional photographers, of 16 years and over. and entries taken in any urban setting within Europe, the Middle East or Africa are eligible to win.

The Urban Photographer of the Year will be the person who, in the eyes of the judges, has best captured the brief to portray the life of a town or city at a given point in time.

There will be 24 prizes, one awarded for each hour and three major winners and three major prizes – first place and two runners up.

You can choose to photograph any town or city at work within Europe, The Middle East or Africa. For example a photograph could capture London at work at 10am, Lisbon at 2am, Dubai at 9pm and so on. You can enter up to 24 separate photographs but only one for each hour.
