Dates:
From 1 February 2023 to 1 April 2023, 11:59 p.m., the pictures including the real contact details (name, address, e-mail) must be uploaded via the form for participation.

Sizes:
The pictures must be submitted in JPG format. The maximum file size is 5 MB.
Image title/file name:
The file name must not contain the name of the participant or allow conclusions to be drawn about the identity of the participant. Ideally, the participant uses the file name to give the submitted work a title, for example “Bild_ohne_Namen.jpg”. The awarding of a title is voluntary, but a good title can help to arouse the interest of the jurors. Basically, however, the image must be able to speak for itself, the title should therefore not exceed the length of 30 characters. If a participant does not award a title, 205er Photography reserves the right to award a title itself in the event of an award.
Image processing and montages:
Image edits are allowed. Montages must be marked as such. If the photographic performance takes a back seat due to excessive editing of the images, it is possible that members of the jury will have a negative impact on this fact in their evaluation.
