\nExhibition Requirements<\/strong>
\nIMAGE AND ENTRY REQUIREMENTS This exhibition is open to anyone; however, an entry may be rejected when the Sponsor or the Exhibition Organizers, in their reasonable discretion, believes the entry does not conform to exhibition rules and these Conditions of Entry.

The exhibition assumes no liability of any misuse of copyright
\nAlteration and Computer Generation Subject to Divisional restrictions (particularly Nature, Photo Travel, and Photojournalism) images may be altered, either electronically or otherwise, by the maker. Adjustments to enhance images or creatively modify images are allowed providing the underlying photograph is retained in a way that is obvious to the viewer. Images may not be constructed entirely with a computer, and must be the sole work of the author
\nRe-use of accepted images: Once an image has been accepted in this exhibition it may not be entered again in any future instances of this exhibition. It may, of course, be entered in any other PSA\/FIAP recognised exhibitions but must always have the same title.

\nSUBJECT MATTER AND SECTION DEFINITIONS<\/strong>
\n
\nStatement on Subject Matter applicable to all sections<\/strong>
\nThe fundamental rule that must be observed at all times and applies to all sections offered in exhibitions with FIAP patronage or PSA recognition is that the welfare of living creatures is more important than any photograph. This means that practices such as baiting of subjects with a living creature and removal of birds from nests, for the purpose of obtaining a photograph, are highly unethical, and such photographs are not allowed in any exhibition with FIAP patronage or PSA recognition. Under no circumstances may a living creature be placed in a situation where it will be killed, injured or stressed for the purpose of obtaining a photograph. This rule applies regardless of whether or not the creature being killed, injured or stressed is visible in the captured image.
\n
\nThere are also concerns about the use of aerial photography, drones, helicopters, low flying aircraft. These should not cause any interference with other individuals or animals which causes a disturbance in their normal activity or disrupt the way any individuals or animals interact with their environment.
\nEntry in this exhibition is conditional on accepting these policies.
\n
\nThe content of images must comply with these General Conditions and with the Division and Section definitions listed in these conditions. Images that – in the sole opinion of the judges or the Exhibition Organizers – do not comply, will be disqualified so the entrant may be aware of the problem when considering entry into other exhibitions with FIAP patronage\/PSA recognition.
\nFurther details on the PSA’s drone policy may be found at https:\/\/psa-photo.org\/index.php?psa-policies#drone
\n
\nPSA Monochrome Definition<\/strong>
\nAn image is considered to be Monochrome only if it gives the impression of having no color (i.e. contains only shades of grey which can include pure black and pure white) OR it gives the impression of being a greyscale image that has been toned in one color across the entire image. (For example by Sepia, red, gold, etc.) A greyscale or multi-colored image modified or giving the impression of having been modified by partial toning, multi-toning or by the inclusion of spot coloring does not meet the definition of monochrome and shall be classified as a Color Work.
\nGreyscale Monochrome images may be entered for Nature, Photojournalism and Photo Travel but toned images are not permitted for these sections.
\nMonochrome images may not be entered in Pictorial Prints or PID Color Sections.
\nSeparate sections must be offered for Color Pictorial Prints, Monochrome Pictorial Prints, PIDC and PIDM.<\/p>\n
\nNature photography records all branches of natural history except anthropology and archaeology. This includes all aspects of the physical world, both animate and inanimate, that have not been made or modified by humans.
\nNature images must convey the truth of the scene that was recorded. A well-informed person should be able to identify the subject of the image and be satisfied that it has been presented honestly and that no unethical practices have been used to control the subject or capture the image. Images that directly or indirectly show any human activity that threatens the life or welfare of a living organism are not allowed.
\nThe most important part of a Nature image is the nature story it tells. High technical standards are expected and the image must look natural.
\nObjects created by humans, and evidence of human activity, are allowed in Nature images only when they are a necessary part of the Nature story.
\nPhotographs of human-created hybrid plants, cultivated plants, feral animals, domesticated animals, human-created hybrid animals and mounted or preserved zoological specimens are not allowed.
\nImages taken with subjects under controlled conditions, such as zoos, are allowed.
\nControlling live subjects by chilling, anaesthetic or any other method of restricting natural movement is not allowed.
\nNo modification that changes the truth of a Nature image is allowed. Images may be cropped but no other technique that removes, adds or moves any part of the image is allowed.
\nTechniques that remove elements added by the camera, such as dust spots, digital noise and lens flare are allowed.
\nComplete conversion of colour images to greyscale monochrome is allowed. Partial conversion, toning and infrared captures or derivations are not allowed.
\nMultiple images of the same subject that are combined in camera or with software by focus stacking, exposure blending or stitching (images taken consecutively and combined by overlapping) are allowed
\nAttention is drawn to the PSA Statement on Subject Matter which applies to all sections.
\n
\nVignettes and Borders<\/strong>
\nFor the purpose of this exhibition vignettes are not allowed in Nature Digital images. Any border added must be a single border of black or white, no greater than 3 -5 pixels in width.
\n
\nPhoto Travel Definition<\/strong>
\nA Photo Travel image expresses the characteristic features or culture of a land as they are found naturally. There are no geographical limitations. Images from events or activities arranged specifically for photography, or of subjects directed or hired for photography are not permitted. Close up pictures of people or objects must include features that provide information about the location.
\nTechniques that add, relocate, replace or remove any element of the original image, except by cropping, are not permitted. The only allowable adjustments are removal of dust or digital noise, restoration of the appearance of the original scene, and complete conversion to greyscale monochrome. Other derivations, including infrared, are not permitted. All images must look natural.
\n
\nVignettes and Borders<\/strong>
\nFor the purpose of this exhibition vignettes are not allowed in Photo Travel Digital images. Any border added must be a single border of black or white, no greater than 3 -5 pixels in width.
\n
\nPSA Photojournalism Definition<\/strong>
\nPhotojournalism entries are images with informative content and emotional impact, reflecting the human presence in our world. The journalistic (story-telling) value of the image should receive priority over pictorial quality. Images that misrepresent the truth, such as those from events or activities arranged specifically for photography, or of subjects directed or hired for photography, are not eligible.
\nTechniques that add, relocate, replace, remove or change any element in the original scene, except by cropping, are not permitted. The only allowable modifications are removal of dust, scratches or digital noise and restoration of the appearance of the existing scene, or complete conversion to full monochrome. Other derivations, including infrared, are not eligible.
\n
\nVignetting and Borders<\/strong>
\nVignettes are not allowed in Photojournalism images. Any border added must be a single border of black or white, no greater than 3-5 pixels in width.<\/p>\n
\nIf, at any time, it is determined in the reasonable discretion of the exhibition organizer or the judges before, during, or after the judging of an exhibition that an entrant has submitted entries where one or more images may fail to comply with these Conditions of Entry, including the stated definitions, the exhibition organizers reserve the right to delete the entry from the exhibition and void any or all acceptances or awards in connection with the exhibition. Fees may be forfeited or refunded in these circumstances. The entrant acknowledges that the decision of the exhibition organizers or the judges is final
\nIn order to ensure that images comply with the Conditions of Entry and definitions, the exhibition organizers may carry out reasonable measures to verify that:
\na) the images are the original work of the entrant and
\nb) the images comply with the rules and definitions as set out in these Conditions of Entry
\nThese steps include, but are not limited to, questioning any entrant, requiring the submission of RAW files or other digital files representing the original capture of the submitted image(s), confronting the entrant with evidence that one or more submitted images fails to comply with the Conditions of Entry (also known as Entry Rules), and offering the entrant a reasonable opportunity to provide counter evidence to refute the exhibition organizer\u2019s evidence by a set deadline. Such entries that are not cleared or are still questionable after the entrant has presented evidence may be considered in breach of these Conditions of Entry, and declined. Such entries may be referred to PSA for further investigation of possible ethics violations
\nPSA retains the right to investigate in any way all complaints\/suspicions of breaches of entry conditions, impose sanctions if deemed necessary, void the acceptances of any image found to violate the PSA rules, include the entrant\u2019s name on the list of sanctions provided to Exhibitions, and share such investigations with FIAP. Entrants automatically agree to these terms by the act of entering the Exhibition and agree to cooperate with any investigation.
\nIf another party is submitting images on the entrant\u2019s behalf, the entrant will still be held responsible for adhering to these Conditions of Entry (Entry Rules) and will be subject to sanction for any violations to these Conditions of Entry and PSA\u2019s Statement of Ethics that may result. If another party is processing images for an entrant or submitting images on the entrant\u2019s behalf, the entrant will still be held responsible for adhering to all Conditions of Entry including the specific conditions in the relevant definitions.
\nPSA NOTICE<\/strong>: When an entrant fills in the Entry Form to submit an entry the entrant will see a feature to affirm he or she has read these Conditions of Entry when he or she fills out the entry form. If the entrant does not so affirm the entry will not be submitted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
