Thank you for your interest in the Your Favorite Places Photo Contest sponsored by Canon.
We’ve compiled a list of frequently asked questions. If, for some reason, your question isn’t answered here, please send us an e-mail at canon_faq@wernerpublishing.com.
Q: How many photos can I enter?
A: For this contest, we allow two photos per person.
Q: Can I enter more than two photos?
A: Please limit all submissions to two photos. Submitting more than two will disqualify you from the contest.
Q: I submitted two photos but why did only one of them make it into the gallery?
A: Each person’s photos are subject to approval. Once you complete the online entry form, one of our editors approves or disapproves each photo for the online gallery. Don’t worry though—once the contest is over and the People’s Choice Awards voting period begins, all submitted photos will be visible in the gallery.
Q: When can I vote for the People’s Choice Awards?
A: The voting period is July 24 through July 31. If you enter your e-mail address on the gallery page, we can send you a reminder notice.
Q: How many times can I vote in the People’s Choice Awards?
A: Each person is allowed only one vote.
Q: Do I need to submit a picture taken using a Canon camera?
A: No. You may submit pictures taken with any brand of camera.
Q: When will the winners be notified?
A: Sometime in August.
Q: When will the winners be announced?
A: The Grand Prize winner’s photo will be published in the October 2007 issue of Outdoor Photographer. Runner-ups and the People’s Choice Awards winners will be announced online sometime in September.
Q: When I try to enter online, I get an error message. What’s going on?
A: Often, if your first attempt at entering online isn’t successful, our system won’t let you enter again—it’s a way to prevent duplicate submissions. Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies—even restarting your computer—and go to the online entry page again.
Q: I’ve tried clearing my cache and cookies, and I even bought a new computer. The online entry form just isn’t working for me.
A: Double-check that the size of your image file meets our requirements.
