Silver Camera

The “Silver Camera” is an international photo contest presented by the Aachen-Laurensberger Rennverein e.V., honouring the best equestrian photograph of the year. This renowned competition celebrates the most captivating, emotional, and beautifully composed moments of equestrian sport — from the harmony between horse and rider to the elegant athleticism of the sport.

The winners will be selected by a jury and officially announced during the FEI World Championships Aachen. Alongside the prestigious Silver Camera trophy, the winners will also receive prize money.

The application deadline was 5 July 2026.
