2023 February Competition

Set Subject “Photo Journalism

Story telling photographs such as are seen in the news media and periodicals, which may include documentary, contemporary life, illustrative, sport news or human interest.
Entries shall consist of images with informative content and emotional impact, reflecting the human presence in our world. The journalistic (story-telling) value of the image shall receive priority over pictorial quality.
In the interest of credibility, images that misrepresent the truth, such as those from events or activities specifically arranged for photography or of subjects directed or hired for photography, are not eligible. Techniques that add, relocate, replace or remove any element of the original image are not permitted. The only allowable modifications are removal of dust, scratches or digital noise, sharpening that is not obvious, and conversion to greyscale monochrome. Derivations, including infrared, are not eligible.
