    “Show us what FX You” Photo Contest – Closed

    Woodrow WaldenBy Woodrow WaldenDecember 21, 2015Updated:January 22, 20169 Comments3 Mins Read
    You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life. Joan Miró

    As a photographer, you have the power to influence the way others see the world. This influence might come from the way you use light, the subjects you shoot, the locations you explore, or your decision to shoot in colour or black-and-white.

    These are your tools, and what you choose or choose not to utilize can not only portray your view of the world, it can ultimately have a lasting effect on the way others see it too.

    Show us what FX YouSo please, show us what FX you…

    Contest Details:

    Monday, December 21, 2015 – Friday, January 8, 2016

      Is there any requirement for model releases?

    2. Ricardo Salamé Páez on December 30, 2015 5:18 pm

      Can I enter with a DX?

    3. Erin Corrado on January 6, 2016 7:58 pm

      Does the photographer retain copyright to their photo if they enter? Also, do they retain it if they win? Thanks!

      Hi Erin, You will retain all rights to your photo.

      We only retain the right to use it for promotional purposes, or on social media. We wouldn’t sell or otherwise profit from your work.

      Hope that helps!

      Hi Ricardo,

      You can take your photo with whatever camera you wish!

    6. vistekltd on January 7, 2016 8:30 am

      Hi there,

      It really depends on the photo. Keep in mind that these would be considered editorial use though. We wouldn’t be using the photos for profit, however, they may be used in our promotional materials and/or social media.

      Hope this helps…

    7. Erin Corrado on January 8, 2016 3:56 am

      Great – thanks!

    8. Limbs Jones on January 10, 2016 4:29 pm

    9. vistekltd on February 5, 2016 2:51 pm

      Thanks for pointing that out. It should be fixed now….
