3. Entry Materials. Entrants represent and warrant that their Submission is their original work, it has not been copied from others, and it does not violate the rights of any other person or entry. All entry materials become the property of the Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. Entry in this Contest constitutes entrant’s irrevocable, perpetual permission and consent, without further compensation or attribution, to use the Submission and the entrant’s name and city and state for editorial, advertising, commercial and publicity purposes by the Sponsor and/or others authorized by the Sponsor. Sponsor and/or others authorized by the Sponsor shall have the right to edit, adapt, and modify the Submission. In addition, a Submission shall be deemed to be a work-made-for-hire owned by the Sponsors under the copyright laws of the United States, and submission of an entry shall constitute and be deemed to be the entrant’s irrevocable consent to transfer and assign all rights, title and interest in a Submission to the Sponsor, including but not limited to the copyright, and renewal rights worldwide, and to execute all documents and take all actions deemed reasonably necessary by Sponsor to effect, record, and perfect any requested assignment. Each entrant releases and discharges the Sponsor, the judges, any party associated with the development or administration of the Contest, their employees, agents, or representatives, or any of their parents, subsidiaries, sister companies, or affiliates from any and all liability in connection with the Contest, including without limitation, legal claims, costs, injuries, losses or damages, demand or actions of any kind.

4. Photograph Copyright/Use Rights. Entries must be submitted by the original photographer. Do not submit a photo taken by someone other than yourself. Entrant must be the sole owner of the copyright of any image submitted. Submission of the photo and entry form is your guarantee that you are the author and copyright holder of the photo. Entrants retain the copyright to their photographs. By entering the contest, entrants grant Sponsor a royalty-free, world-wide, perpetual, non-exclusive license to display, distribute, reproduce, and create derivative works of the entries, in whole or in part, in any media now existing or subsequently developed, for any purpose including, but not limited to advertising and promotion of the website and commercial products.

If the winner is unreachable or ineligible or fails to claim their prize within five (5) business days, an alternate winner may be selected, at the sole discretion of the Judge(s). By accepting a prize, each winner further releases the Sponsor and related affiliates and related companies from any and all liability, loss, or damage of any kind arising out of or in connection with such winner's participation in the Contest or with respect to awarding, receipt, possession, use or misuse of any prize, or to participating in the Contest or any prize-related activities.

7. Limitation of Liability. The Sponsor, its affiliates, and their respected representatives are not responsible or liable for any entry or other communication which is lost, late, damaged, misdirected, illegible, incomplete, postage-due, mutilated, or stolen. If, for any reason (including without limitation, tampering, fraud, technical failures, or any causes beyond the control of the Sponsor), the Contest cannot be conducted as planned, the Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to cancel, terminate, modify, or suspend the Contest.

8. General Release. By entering the Contest, each entrant releases each Released party from any liability whatsoever for any claims, costs, injuries, losses, or damages of any kind arising out of or in connection with the Contest or with the acceptance, possession, or use of any prize (including without limitation, claims, costs, injuries, or losses related to personal injuries, death, damages to or destruction of property, rights of publicity or privacy, defamation or portrayal in a false light).
