How To Submit Your Entry

Attach your photo to an email and send it to photocontest@tidewaternews.com. You must include your full name, a daytime phone number and a description of your photo including names and location in every email that you send. Attachments should not exceed 25mb. You may submit multiple photos to a single email and you may submit multiple emails. Photos will not be accepted any other way. Please retain the original camera quality version of your photos in case you are selected as a finalist. Photos from iPads, tablets or cell phones will not be accepted.

The contest deadline is Monday, Sept. 29 at 5 p.m.

Photos will be judged by a roundtable of The Tidewater News staff.

We are looking for candid photos that depict the full spectrum of
the people who live and work in Franklin, Southampton and Isle of Wight.

We judge photos for theme, composition and clarity.

Finalist photos will be balanced for color and lighting before printing.
