For rules of the contest, see below.
2013 Photo Contest Rules
The 2013 Tent Photo Contest (the "Contest") is open to ALL photographers at least 18 years of age, except employees of Tents For Rent LLC and the immediate families of such employees. The contest is open to all participants regardless of residence or citizenship, so long as the laws of their jurisdiction allow participation.
WHAT TO ENTER:
We are looking for striking digital images of tents and the events held inside tents. You may enter as many photos as you like.
If you choose to include people in your submission, you are responsible for obtaining the necessary releases from the individuals depicted, and must be able to provide copies of those releases to Tents For Rent LLC upon request. Entrants must not submit images that involve human nudity or infringe on the rights of any other photographer or person.
HOW TO ENTER:
All images must be submitted as email attachments to photos@tentsforrent.net .
ELIGIBILITY AND JUDGING:
To ensure eligibility for the contest all entries must have a resolution of 3 megapixels or greater to be made available upon request. Images that do not meet this standard can still be judged, but may not be honored in the competition (at the judges sole discretion) if the photographer is unable or unavailable to provide the proper resolution when asked.
Previously published material for which non-exclusive rights were granted may be entered as long as you still maintain the right to grant us a license (see "Your Rights" below). You must be able to disclose when and where the photo appeared previously to Tents For Rent LLC upon request.
Submissions may be watermarked if desired, but the watermark should be inconspicuous enough to not interfere with the judging of the photo. A watermarked photo might not be honored by the competition (at the judges sole discretion) if the photographer is unable or unavailable to provide a pristine, watermark-free version of the image when asked.
Images will be judged on originality, technical excellence, composition, overall impact and artistic merit. The judges are a panel of Tents For Rent LLC staff members familiar with photography and responsible for selecting images. Tents For Rent LLC shall determine winner eligibility in its sole and absolute discretion. All decisions made by the judges are final.
DEADLINES:
Entries can be submitted until November 31, 2013.
Entrants may be asked to supplement their submission (such as the highest resolution version of their photo, or a watermark-free version of their photo).
The winner will be announced by December 15, 2013.
Tents For Rent LLC reserves the right to adjust any deadline(s) as the result of causes beyond its immediate control.
YOUR RIGHTS:
You will retain all rights to any photograph you submit -- including ownership if applicable. You grant Tents For Rent LLC rights (as described below) to your photograph for use in any marketing materials whether or not you win the contest. By submitting a photo, you grant Tents For Rent LLC a royalty-free, nonexclusive right, in perpetuity, to:
- Use the photograph on the Internet in support of our mission.
- Use the photograph in Tents For Rent LLC’s communications.
- Provide your photograph to other individuals and organizations for use in news stories, newsletters, reports, slide shows, displays, web pages, and the like.
- Use, in connection with the Photo Contest, your name, city, state and country of residence in promotions and other publications.
- Keep the files provided, and to archive the images on CD or in other electronic forms, so that your photos can be used to support our mission and be properly credited.
As conditions of this permission, Tents For Rent LLC shall credit photographs with the caption "© Person's Name" upon request.
