Work that has “a point of view and something to say” is welcome for submission.

The site not only features galleries of submitted work, but also includes photographers’ commentaries and discussions of influences and artistic process. Some interviews are available as audio clips. Moreover, there is news and events, interviews with established and up and coming photographers, calls for submissions, a blog, and some frankly unusual projects.

Photo-Eye’s other activities include publishing Photo-Eye Magazine and mail-order catalogues, as well as running a retail bookstore. The site includes detailed formation for submitting to Photographer’s Showcase.
