General Guidelines

1. The Visual Storytelling Contest is exclusive to photos only.
2. The photo and story must be original. The narrative need not be a literal interpretation of what’s captured in the photo.
3. You can submit colored or B&W entries, whichever you prefer.
4. You can submit one entry each to all three categories: October – Landscape, November – Street, December – Portrait. However, you can only win a major prize once.
5. The photo must not violate someone’s rights, including but not limited to copyright.
6. The aim is to announce a winner at the end of every month before proceeding to the next theme. That’s why we’d appreciate receiving your entries from the 1st to the 25th of Oct, Nov and Dec 2015.


Judging

1. The panel will consist of 3 persons – the Page Owners of Photo Diaries and Retaso Media, with one guest judge per monthly genre.
