**IAȘI, ROMANIA —** The International Quo Vadis Film Festival 2026, in partnership with Byzanfest, is [inviting photographers](https://basilica.ro/en/quo-vadis-film-festival-2026-to-host-exhibition-orthodox-photography/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExYXhEamJKUkdnSk4xNkMzTXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR70rP115O7G13B04O27H6wko1LUHHoBPVc0D6XiuBcNFtQoPzStfTtOHdayVw%5Faem%5FRPFQXHbaYHX9gHVlPSkTtw) to participate in a new exhibition highlighting the life of Orthodox Christian communities outside traditionally Orthodox countries.

Titled "My Neighbour: Orthodoxy Around the World," the exhibition seeks photographs that portray the Orthodox faith in regions where Orthodox Christians are a minority, including countries such as Australia, England, China, and throughout the Middle East. Organizers said the project aims to showcase how Orthodoxy has taken root across diverse cultures and communities beyond its historic centers.

"When one thinks about where Orthodox Christianity exists, they usually think of Greece, Russia, Romania, etc., also known as the 'Old World,'" Byzanfest representatives said. "However, over time, Orthodoxy has reached the shores of every land on Earth, including the Americas, Asia, Australia, and beyond."

Participants may submit up to two color photographs taken in 2025 or later. Images may depict church architecture, feast days, worship, portraits, landscapes, cultural traditions, daily life, or other expressions of Orthodox Christianity. Black-and-white submissions are permitted only if accompanied by a color version of the same image.

Photographs must have a minimum resolution of 200 dpi and be submitted with a completed entry form by Sept. 15, 2026\. The selected works will be displayed during the third Quo Vadis Film Festival, scheduled for Nov. 10-14 in Iași. Details and entry forms can be found [here](https://www.byzanfest.com/quo-vadis-2026-photo-exhibit).
