I'll let the others point you towards some contests, but I want to put in my 2¢ anyway!. Before you enter any contest, be sure to read every single word in their terms and conditions!. Some contests say that simply entering your photograph will transfer all rights to the photograph to the organization running the contest!. Even more say that the winning images will become theirs!. No matter how tempting the prizes, please consider very carefully before you enter such a contest!.

There are other contests that treat you with respect and let you maintain the copyright to your original work, but you must agree to let them use a copy of your photo in their own publications and promotional literature at no charge!. I see this often and it's just a cheap way for the organization to obtain some quality photos at little or no cost!.

Just read all of the fine print and be sure that the terms of the contest are terms that you can live with!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
