Celebrating the beauty of blue.

Natalie Brennan

We’ve been listening closely to the amazing Unsplash community, and one thing’s for sure - you love a creative challenge. We get it, it's like a gentle nudge to pick up that camera and capture some of the everyday beauty that often goes unnoticed. Well, here’s an easy one for you... blue. Seek out the color in your daily life, in nature, or capture the significance of blue in your culture. With its wide range of shades and tones, blue offers endless creative possibilities, making it the perfect theme for our partnership with Bluescape.

Bluescape, a visual collaboration platform, is taking over the "Blue" topic. From now until August 15th, submit blue images from all categories — from clear skies to deep waters to monochromatic 3D Renders.

"In a colorful world, sometimes monochrome is the most striking of all. Colors convey so much and choosing a single one can pack a powerful punch. We chose blue—maybe you can guess why? We hope this collection inspires your most colorful ideas!" — Bluescape

Bluescape's favorite submission, which evokes a sense of emotion, will have the chance to win a Wacom One tablet.

By entering the contest you agree to these terms and conditions: All entries must be received from 12:00AM EST on July 15, 2023 to 11:59PM on August 15, 2023. This contest is international. One (1) winner will be selected by the Bluescape team, and will be notified on August 20, 2023 by Unsplash. Entrants must be over 18 years old on the date of their entry. The name, email address and phone number of the winner must be provided to enable fulfillment of the prize.
