For the photo contest there is no limit to the number of entries each person can submit. Each entry must comply with the following requirements (the “Photograph Requirements”).

Photographs must have been taken within three (3) years before the date of entry. Only minor burning, dodging and/or color correction is acceptable, as is cropping. High dynamic range images (HDR) and stitched panoramas are NOT acceptable. Any changes to the original Photograph not itemized here unacceptable and will render the Photograph ineligible for a prize.

The photograph, in its entirety, must be a single work of original material taken by the Contest entrant. By entering the Contest, entrant represents, acknowledges, and warrants that the submitted photograph is an original work created solely by the entrant, that the photograph does not infringe on the copyrights, trademarks, moral rights, rights of privacy/publicity or intellectual property rights of any person or entity, and that no other party has any right, title, claim, or interest in the photograph. The photograph must not, in the sole and unfettered discretion of the Sponsor, contain obscene, provocative, defamatory, sexually explicit, or otherwise objectionable or inappropriate content. The caption must be complete and accurate, sufficient to convey the circumstances in which the photograph was taken. Disguising or misrepresenting the origin of your content is cause for disqualification. Watermarks are not acceptable.

All entries must be submitted and received by September 30, 2019 at 11:59:00 PM ET. Proof of submission is not proof of receipt.
