Established in 1969, NPCI (Nikon Photo Contest International) is one of the world's most prestigious international photographic contests.
Photography is a universal language. Its timeless power transcends nationality, ethnicity, and culture by communicating directly to the emotional core we all share. Without words, photographs speak to us all. That's what makes photography so special — and so important.
NPCI has a goal to create an occasion for photographers around the world to communicate and exchange their photographic visions irrespective of their professional or amateur status. NPCI is also an opportunity for people around the world to see and share these visions. It is our hope that this event will further enrich and broaden global photographic culture.
