Landscape
Cosplay photography set against striking natural or cityscape environments. This category highlights how character and location work together to create unforgettable imagery. If your photo balances both cosplay and scenery – and you’re unsure which aspect stands out more – this is the right category.
Category Rules
- The setting must be an outdoor landscape or cityscape.
- Indoor environments are not permitted. Exception: large industrial spaces that create a landscape-like sense of scale and environment.
- The environment must be equally or more visually prominent than the cosplayer.
