Shortlisted in the 10th 35AWARDS
Global Recognition for AI Photography
This year, one of my AI-generated portraits reached the 3rd stage of voting in the 10th 35AWARDS International Photography Contest—the final shortlist round, which only 2,925 out of over 112,000 photographers achieved.
The 35AWARDS is the largest annual photo award on the platform, with 473,000 photos submitted by participants from 174 countries. The judging process involves three stages, including evaluation by an international jury, professional photographers, and public voting.
According to the official results, I was ranked:
TOP 70 Photographer in the “Photos Generated by Neural Networks, AI (Experiment)” category
TOP 50 in that nomination group
And placed among the TOP 35 photographers from Greece
“Only 2,925 people have reached the third stage (shortlist)… The author entered in TOP 70 photographer in nomination ‘Photos generated by neural networks, AI (experiment).’”

For me, this recognition is not only about numbers or placements. It’s about the fact that a piece created in collaboration with AI was evaluated alongside traditional photography and managed to resonate within a global creative arena. When experimentation meets intention, something powerful can happen.
Grateful for the visibility this platform offers and for everyone who continues to support the creative journey of Ennoia.
