Amateur Photographer Magazine

APOY Competition Rules

Entrants may SUBMIT only one photograph per month, as either an unmounted print (max size 210 x 297mm) or slide (no glass mounts please), in colour or black & white.

The entrant's name, address and daytime phone number must be attached to the slide mount or the back of the print. Photos must not previously have been published in a national UK photography magazine. Each entry must be accompanied by the correct entry form, with all sections completed. A photocopy will be accepted.

All submissions must be well packaged in a stiffened envelope (no tubes, please) bearing sufficient postage, and entrants wanting their picture back must include a stiffened SAE stamped to sufficient value for their return. This competition is open to bona fide amateur photographers and students only. That is, entrants should not earn more than 10% of their total annual income from photography. Copyright of all entries remains with the photographer, but Amateur Photographer and Canon reserve the right to use entries, without payment, to promote the competition. Employees of IPC Media and Canon, and their families, may not enter this competition. Prizes are as stated and no alternatives will be offered. The £5,000 overall prize may only be spent on Canon consumer imaging products, and not on business products such as printer/ copiers. Canon has the right to substitute the prize for a similar item of equal or higher value if the stated prize is not available. No money can be added to the overall prize and no cash alternative can be offered to any of the prizes. The overall winner must choose their prize within six weeks of being notified. The Editor's decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. By entering this competition you grant permission to AP and Canon to reproduce your photos for display at an exhibition, and on the AP and Canon websites, should they be selected.
