The Monochrome Awards, a special competition exclusively for black and white photographs, has been an award for photographers worldwide since 2014.

Again, it’s not just about babies, but in principle about all types of photography, as long as they are monochrome, i.e. black & white.

The awards describe themselves as follows: “The Monochrome Awards are primarily aimed at people for whom photography is a passion and a way of life. It is a platform where professionals and amateurs can submit their shots in a sea of ambitious and creative photographers from all over the world,… to show their work to an international audience.”

Numerous categories, whether fashion, art, landscape or architectural photography, offer a wide range for countless artists.

Those who are addicted to traditional photography will find breathtaking photos here.

I am therefore very pleased that my pictures have attracted attention despite the abundance of photographers and great photos. The baby photography is not particularly highlighted in this competition so that I was rather afraid that the pictures “go down”.
