The PDN Photo Annual 2011 Photo Contest deadline is fast approaching on January 25, 2011, so you have only a few days left to get your submissions in. We usually do not report on contests where you have to pay to take part in but we’re making an exception on this one.
To qualify, photographs must be taken, published or produced between January 1, 2010 and January 25, 2011. Ongoing or in progress projects that contain older images are also allowed.
JUDGING: Entries will be judged on the basis of creativity, photographic quality and effectiveness in expressing the contest theme. Winners will be published in the June 2011 PDN issue exhibiting the PHOTO ANNUAL & PDNonline.com.
PDN has one of the shortest — and sweetest — contest rules EVER. Check out the part about what you are signing away by entering the contest:
CONSENT AGREEMENT: Submitted materials will not be returned. PDN is not responsible for the loss or damage of any entry. Submission of an entry to the contest automatically constitutes the contestant’s acceptance of all conditions set forth in the above rules. It also acknowledges the right of PDN and Photo District News to use the entry for publication on PDNonline.com and in exhibitions and promotions related to the PDN Photo Annual contest up to 18 months following the contest.
Notice PDN reserves to itself the right to use your submissions only for events related to the contest and for only a maximum of 18 months. No rights grab here. Bravo!
You can read all the rules and enter the contest at: PDN.
