Please ensure your images are of the highest quality. We suggest a minimum of 1920 x 1080 pixels (300 DPI) in landscape orientation. We will NOT accept pixelated images. You’ll be prompted to include your photographer’s name in your entry so the photography can be credited if your entry is publicised.

WHAT FILE TYPE DO THE IMAGES NEED TO BE?
Please submit your images in JPG or PNG format. All other file types are not accepted. You are able to upload up to 15 photos.
