subject: How to Participate in a Photo Contest [print this page] It might seem obvious, but it's true! Choosing which photo to submit is the hardest step. Get opinions from friends and family to help you make the decision on which one you ultimately want to present, but also follow your own instincts. If there is one picture that catches your eye the most, it most likely has the same effect on others.Once you submit, it is all up to the judges from there. It is very suspenseful waiting for the announcement of the winners, but once you find out that you've placed in the competition, it is one of the most rewarding experiences you'll ever have. Knowing that you won or got a mention in an online photo contest is a great thing for your photography life.
