Did you enter the Sony World Photography Awards? And if yes then in which competition did you participate? I choose to participate to the "Youth Award". If you want you can also post your entry photos here to share them with other people and give then an opportunity to inspire!
My entry is this:

Sadly I didn't stumble upon the contest until today:/
I'm looking for some decent ones, are there any others?
I know there are, but for me it's been difficult especially since I am 16...not 18...
Best of luck to everyone who entered!

I signed up to Photo Competitions Network, haven't entered that many but it's always actively listing them.

When I see it open I think to myself, "Maybe, I should?". Then I take one look at the winners and runners up from the previous year, realise I don't have a snowball in Hell's chance of even getting past the first round and tell myself, "Maybe next year when my stuff improves!".

Nah. It's not all about winning! You just enter a competition in order to get more experience and that will make you to improve!

Actually most competitions don't. Most people enter photos in most competitions that they have already taken. How you do in the competition does not make you improve because you are submitting work you might have done ten years ago. For instance, if I were entering this, I'd probably tweak and submit a certain photo I took back in 1998, because it already won some awards and it would have the best chance of winning. Now if they assigned you a subject to take photos of, and did not accept your old photos, that might help you improve.

In those competition you have to submit photos of the same year eg for the WPO Competitions (which ended on 4/1/2013) you have to enter photos of 2012.
