Never entered a competition before and that is over 40 years of taking pictures. I have had a few pictures entered into gallery art shows by friends without my knowing. That did give me a nice feeling inside about both my friends and my photography. Remember, Stressed spelled backward is Desserts.

Tom Reichner "I am a little creepy" ![]() 12,809 posts Gallery: 142 photos Best ofs: 1 Likes: 3301 Joined Dec 2008 Location: Omak, in north-central Washington state, USA More info | Aug 12, 2013 12:02 | #5 I would love to enter competitions, but I have found that almost every competition out there claims at least some rights to use & publish ANY image entered (not just the winners). So, if I enter something, I then lose the ability to sell a license with "First North American Rights" to my clients. The commercial value of an image is often severely undermined any time it is entered in a competition. "Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.

Aug 12, 2013 21:54 | #13 I have entered 2 contests at work. My company recognized they had a lot of employees that were amateur photographers and started a contest. They have 3 categories that loosely relate to work and allow 2 entries per category. I have never won but they have used several of my photographs as the photo of the day that appears on their daily news letter. Joe
