The Image
Capture of the original image, whether on film or digital media, must have been by the contestant. Post capture manipulation by photographic printing or digital means, if any, must be predominantly done by the entrant. Printing may be carried out by any process.
Copyright
Individual photographers retain copyright but the Queen Mary Reserve Trust shall be entitled to use images for publicity and related purposes free of charge. Such uses include display of images at a low resolution on the web and within digital audio visual presentations. (These use small files and the extraction of individual images is not possible.) All reasonable care will be taken to protect individual photographers’ rights and acknowledge their authorship where appropriate.

Maximum

Either “landscape” or “portrait” layout is acceptable.
