GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS

1. The title for the 成人快手 Countryfile Photographic Competition 2019 is “Beauty and the Beasts”. The theme is open to your personal interpretation but we’re looking for beautiful photographs that show off the best of British countryside, its wildlife, agriculture and recreation.

Farm animals are allowed, but photos of pets and zoo animals are not eligible. Images of UK wildlife in captivity must be declared as such. The 成人快手’s decision as to the eligibility of individual photographs will be final and no correspondence will be entered into.

2. Photographs entered must be taken in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man.

3. Entrants can submit up to three photos in total as prints, in colour or black and white, or as JPEGS uploaded to our competition website. Prints must be at least as large as a standard postcard.

4. Countryfile is aware that digital photography does allow for some image enhancement. You can enter images that have had spots, scratches or other blemishes removed. You can have worked on the colour or enhanced the image for the sake of the composition. You can also crop the image to improve composition.

We will not accept composite images - entries that stitch two or more separate photographs together to make one image, or entries that superimpose elements photographed separately onto an image.

We want you to stay faithful to the spirit of the competition, and never deceive the viewer or misrepresent the aspect of nature being portrayed. 成人快手 Countryfile and the judges reserve the right to exclude any image they believe may have been excessively treated so as to alter its authenticity.

5. The competition is open to UK residents only (including residents of the Channel Islands and Isle of Man). Employees of a 成人快手 Group company or the 成人快手, as well as their immediate families are not eligible to enter. Entrants under the age of 18 need the verifiable consent of a parent or guardian to enter.

Entries will not be returned so please remember to keep a copy. Unsuccessful entrants will not be contacted and no feedback on any entry will be provided.

10. All photographs will be judged on the following criteria:

• Composition
• Technical ability
• Originality
• Public appeal
• Suitability for inclusion in a 成人快手 Children In Need calendar

11. The photographs will be judged through the following process:

Stage One

All entries will be assessed in the first instance by members of the production team. From this initial process a maximum of 5,000 of the best photographs will be chosen to go forward for judging.

A judging panel comprised of experienced photographers from camera clubs and photographer groups will then review these 5,000 pictures and select a long-list of approximately 1,000 photographs, based on the above criteria.

Stage Two

A second panel of judges will then review all the entries on the long-list and select the 12 best based on the above criteria. The panel will also select their overall favourite.

Each of the shortlisted entrants will be contacted by a member of the 成人快手 production team within a week of judging. The judging will take place within three weeks of the competition closing date.

If after reasonable attempts a shortlisted entrant cannot be contacted, the 成人快手 reserves the right to offer the place on the shortlist to the next best entry.

Stage Three – The Public Vote

All 12 finalists will be featured on the Countryfile programme on 成人快手 One and the audience will be asked to vote for their favourite. The overall winner will be the entry which receives the most votes in a public vote. Details of how the public can vote, and the rules of the voting, will be published on the Countryfile website and on the programme.

12. The prize will consist of a gift card to the value of £1,000 which can be spent on photographic equipment at a number of outlets. The entry selected as the overall favourite by the judges will receive a gift card to the value of £500 which can also be spent on photographic equipment at a number of outlets. The prizes are as stated and cannot be deferred or transferred. There will be no cash alternatives. The judges’ favourite and the overall winner can be the same photograph – in which case the winning photographer will receive both prizes.

13. The finalists (together with a further twelve photographs and a selection of several for the inside back cover chosen by the judges and/or the 成人快手) shall appear in the Countryfile Calendar 2020, to be sold in aid of the 成人快手 Children in Need Appeal. The finalists’ photos may also be published in the 成人快手 Countryfile magazine and used in other promotions of the competition.

14. In the event of a technical problem or evidence of impropriety with regard to the viewers’ vote, the judges shall have the final decision. If the viewers' vote results in a tie, the judges shall have the casting vote. The judges' decisions will be final and no correspondence can be entered into.

15. All entries must be the original work of the entrant and must not infringe the rights of any other party. The entrants must be the sole owner of copyright in all photographs entered and must have obtained permission of any people featured in the entries or their parents/guardians if children under 16 are featured. Where an individual or a residential property, belonging to someone other than the photographer are featured, the photographer must seek permission and be prepared to provide written consent, when requested by the 成人快手. Further, entrants must not have breached any laws when taking their photographs.

16. We are looking for original photographs, so entries must not have won any national or international competition prize previously.

No fees will be payable for any of the above uses. Entrants whose photographs are one of the finalists also agree to take part in post-competition publicity. While we make every effort to credit photographers, including in printed reproductions of their work, we cannot guarantee that every broadcast use of the photographs will include the photographers' names. Entrants must ensure thatthe photograph is not used to publicise or promote companies, individuals, organisations or causes – other than 成人快手 Children In Need, 成人快手 Countryfile (including the photographic competition, the calendar and any associated 成人快手 promotions) and the winning photographer themselves – until the 1st January 2021.

19. By entering, entrants will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by these rules and the 成人快手 reserves the right to exclude any entry from the competition at any time and in its absolute discretion if the 成人快手 has reason to believe that an entrant has breached these rules, acted fraudulently in any way or brings the 成人快手 into disrepute.

20. The 成人快手 reserves the right to cancel this competition or alter any of the rules at any stage, if deemed necessary in its opinion, and if circumstances arise outside of its control.
