MWT Photography Competition Terms & Conditions

Each entrant can submit a maximum of two photographs, across the categories ‘captivating colours’ and ‘Wild Montgomeryshire’. No single image may be entered into more than one category. Each young entrant, aged 6-16, can also submit a maximum of two photographs into the ‘young blood’ category. They must have the consent of a parent or guardian to enter.

All submissions must have been taken in 2022 in Montgomeryshire. Please submit in jpeg, jpg or png format and ensure no image is larger than 10mb in size.

Entrants are required to provide their full name, email address and phone number. We request this personal data for the purpose of the administration of the photography competition. This data will be processed and stored in a secure manner and will only be kept for the duration of the Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust Photography Competition 2022. We will store the data of the winners in order to make contact and to facilitate the award of prizes. Your security and privacy is important to us and we will never sell your data to other parties. For more information, read our Privacy Policy.

All images submitted to the 2022 Photography Competition may be used by Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust on their social media accounts, associated local, regional, national or international press releases and media, as well as on their website, publications, internal and external exhibitions associated with The Trust and future promotional materials to promote the Trust’s work, unless specifically stated by the entrant. Copyright will always remain with the photographer and Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust will make every reasonable effort to ensure that name credits of entrants are reproduced on images published in online and printed publications.

All images submitted must be the work of the individual submitting them. It is the responsibility of each entrant to ensure that any images they submit have been taken with the permission of the subject (where necessary) and do not infringe the copyright of any third party. Entrants must warrant that the photograph they are submitting is their own work and that they own the copyright for it. The competition is open to all, with the exception of members of staff of Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust and immediate family members.

The welfare of the wildlife subject is more important than the photograph itself. If entries are found to have evidence of undue disturbance or stress inflicted on wildlife in the process of taking the photograph, the entrant will be disqualified. Please avoid damaging habitat or disturbing wildlife in search of the perfect shot.

Events may occur that render the competition itself or the awarding of the prizes impossible due to reasons beyond the control of the promoter and accordingly the promoter may at its absolute discretion vary or amend the promotion. The entrant must agree that no liability shall attach to the promoter as a result thereof.

All information detailing how to enter this competition forms part of these terms and conditions. It is a condition of entry that all rules are accepted as final and that the entrant agrees to abide by these rules.

Submission of an entry will be taken to mean acceptance of these terms and conditions.
