The shortlist for this year's Professional competition was selected by the Honorary Judging Committee, made up of world-renowned figures from the international photographic industry including photographers, picture editors, agents and critics and was chaired by Francis Hodgson.
The 2011 competition has received more submissions than ever before, with a total of 105,000 entries received from 162 countries and includes a number of winners and finalists from previous years.
Within the professional competition there are 15 categories within three subject genres: Photojournalism and Documentary (current affairs, contemporary issues, people, arts & culture and sport); Commercial (campaign, travel, lifestyle, still life and fashion) and Fine Art (architecture, portraiture, landscape, still life and conceptual).
Within the Open competition there are 10 categories for anyone with an interest in photography. They are action, after dark, architecture, arts & culture, fashion, nature & wildlife, panoramic, people, smile and travel. This year the Open entries were judged by a pre-selection committee of inspectors from iStockPhoto.
The winners, which will be announced in April, will be showcased as part of the World Photography Festival and Exhibitions at Somerset House in London. The festival programme, which runs from 26 April to 1 May, includes a mix of talks, screenings, portfolio reviews, peer critiques and workshops led by Academy Members.
