Irish Photo Competition Entry Guidelines
The Irish Fair photo contest encourages chronicling Irish culture through photography. Photos may be taken in Ireland, America, or any country where Irish culture is celebrated. Past entries have included pictures taken in pubs, Irish dance and music classes, at parades, and in private homes.
CATEGORIES
- People - One or more persons are dominant subjects in which the photographer portrays an aspect of Irish culture. Winning entries best evoke their subjects’ feelings or spirits.
- Scenery - The mood of a place, or a setting in which a mood is conveyed. There may be people in the photo, but they must be incidental to the picture.
- Studies in Black and White - Photos of people and/or scenery. Winning entries best use black and white imagery to prompt a feeling or response in the viewer.
First place winners in each category receive the special McConnon Award Ribbon, named after the contest founder, and a limited edition fine art print, courtesy of the contest sponsor, Ireland In Black & White. Second & third place winners receive ribbons and prizes. All contest entries are displayed in the Irish Fair pavilion for the duration of the fair.
ENTRY DEADLINE: 4:00 PM, Tuesday, August 10, 2010 at designated drop off sites
