The July PFRE Photographer of the Month and Videographer of the Month contests are now open. The theme this month for still photos is master ensuite and the June video entries have been rolled into the July contest. As most of you already know, we have made some changes to the way entries are submitted and viewed, as well as some of the contest rules and timelines.
Rule Updates
- The POTM and VOTM will now be open for submissions from the 1st of each month to the 20th.
- Jurors will vote between the 21st and 28th.
- Winners will be announced on the 29th.
- Submissions are now open for comment throughout the entire contest. Until recently, comments were not allowed until the contest was closed but we want to encourage as much engagement and learning as possible.
- NOTE: Entrants are not allowed to comment on their own photo until after the voting is complete to ensure that they remain anonymous.
