Photographers and videographers! Remember to get your submissions into the two underwater photo contests hosted at UnderwaterCompetition.com before January 7, 2007! With over USD $55,000 in combined prizes, we’re going to send 21 winners on dive trips around the world and shower many more with dive and photo gear. Winning images in the OWU competition will be announced and presented at the Our-World Underwater festival in Chicago between Feb 9-11, 2007, and winners of both competitions will have their images printed in some of the most popular dive magazines in the world (see contest site for publishing partners).
Quick links to the two competitions:
- 2nd Annual Wetpixel and DivePhotoGuide International Photo & Video Competition
- DEEP Indonesia 2007 Underwater Photography Competition
I’m not clear on the DEEP category “Indonesia”. Wouldn’t this overlap the other categories? It doesn’t seem to mean above water as the rules clearly state only Environment photos may include topside shots.
Nevemind. Look thoroughly before asking stupid question.
OK here’s another stupid question...I have a video of the new baby Beluga Whale taken from an “underwater” viewing station, but the camera and videograper were dry. Ruling?
Camera must be submerged for all cats except for the environment and conservation category.
Hello, I can’t seem to find information on entry fees as well as pixel dimensions for entries, etc..
The rules say 3000-6000 pixels on the longest dimension. I have an entry for compact camera category taken with a 5mp camera which has only 2560 pixels on it’s longest dimension.
That is a good point. I will amend the rules! A 5MP image is suitable.
