With digital cameras, we all have some great picture stashed somewhere in our computer. Dig it out and upload it to this contest site. You may just find yourself 10k richer and your picture published in a coffee table book.
Contest is for amateurs only. No porn, explicit, copyrighted or trademarked photos. If you send in a really blurry picture, don’t hold your breath waiting for your phone to ring!
Here’s a bit of what the FAQ’s say:
Q. How does the contest work, and what prizes can I win?
A. Each year, we sponsor the International Open Amateur Photography Contest to encourage new artists and undiscovered talent to submit their work for consideration. We receive thousands of entries, each of which is evaluated by our selection committee. Those entries that exhibit a unique perspective or artistic vision are advanced to semifinalists in the contest. Complete sets of prizes are awarded at the end of each contest. All prizes are guaranteed to be awarded. The annual Grand Prize is $10,000.00. The Grand Prize for each individual contest is $1,000.00. For each individual contest there are forty First Prizes of $35.00, four in each of 10 categories. Seventy-three Second Prizes of gifts with a retail value of $25.00 each are awarded without regard to category. We award additional prizes in case of ties.
Q. Am I under any obligation to purchase anything?
A. None whatsoever.
