IMAGE PREPARATION:
Prepare your images as required before beginning the submission process. Submissions are only accepted via the online process. Submissions as email attachments, on CD, or prints are not allowed in this competition and will not be returned.

Digital image files must meet the following specifications:

• 8 bit JPEG files (CMYK and 16 bits files will not be uploaded)
• The largest dimension should be 1280 pixels (width or height) and no less than 800 pixels
• Resolution of 72 dpi
• JPG compression quality of 7 or 8
• Layers must be flattened
• Images will be viewed by the jurors as RGB images; therefore Adobe RGB or SRGB profiles should be used
• Image title may not exceed 40 characters. Please note that image title is the name of the artwork, not the file name. Image title is what the jurors will see when selecting the images. Example: „Sunset in Brooklyn”
• If you’re submitting a Portfolio, start the image titles with Portfolio 1 (Portfolio 2, Portfolio 3, etc, if you’re submitting more than one portfolio) and then the name (i.e. Portfolio 1_Title of image; example: Portfolio 1_Image of Brooklyn)
• File names may contain a maximum of 25 characters, not counting .jpg. The file name will not be seen by the jurors, may not include characters such as #, $, &, periods or other similar characters as part of the file, and should start with your name, then your first initial, and then the name of the file. There will be only one period in the file name, just prior to the file extension (i.e. Smith_J_filename.jpg). It’s important to follow these instructions about the file name to allow the right storage into the image data base.

The Julia Margaret Cameron Award will be given to the best photographer according to the Jurors’ team.
