COVER CALL for 1st Quarter TopBest of 2026
Cover Call — TopBest Magazine 1st Q 2026
Each quarter, one photograph becomes the cover of TopBest Magazine.
The process begins with editorial curation: from the monthly selections, three images are chosen by the DES_Photomag team as cover nominees. The final cover, however, is not decided by us alone — it is chosen by the community.
This moment is not a competition. It is a shared gesture of recognition.

DES Selections — On Storytelling, Sequencing, and Photographic Intent
Photography is often experienced through single images.
A moment, a gesture, a fragment — isolated and consumed within the endless flow of visual platforms. Yet photography, as a language, has always possessed a deeper capacity: the ability to construct narratives, to unfold meaning across time, and to create dialogue between images.
With this in mind, we introduce DES Selections.
