For Images

1. If your image has won, or placed, in any previous photographic competition, information thereof must be declared upon entry. Judges reserve the right to exclude any images deemed to have been used or appeared in public extensively.

2. If your image is chosen for publication by another entity after having been selected as a finalist, please notify Great Plains Conservation immediately.

For Subject Matter

For Image Editing

1. Images must accurately and realistically represent the natural world. Minimal editing will be allowed within the following guidelines:

Normal processing of RAW and JPEG images (minor adjustments to colour, contrast, gradients, sharpening, noise reduction and HDR) are acceptable. HDR composites and panoramic stitching will be allowed so long as the final image bears a realistic resemblance to the original scene.

No cloning, additions or removal of subjects from an image will be allowed. Cropping must be kept to the minimum – images with a cropping factor of greater than 30% of the original image will be judged negatively. We will request the original RAW or JPEG file if any queries arise.
