1. All photos submitted must have been taken by NPIDA dancers only. No exceptions!

2. Identifiable people in your photos MUST only be NPIDA dancers and/or family members. This is an ongoing policy of the Pickett Line Blog, for privacy reasons. Photos showing non-NPIDA individuals or non-NPIDA dancers will not be entered in the contest and will not be posted on the blog.

3. Photos must be taken at the 2014 Oireachtas or Mini Feis: specifically at the Oireachtas in Calgary on Friday November 7 or Saturday November 8, or the Mini Feis on Sunday November 9.

4. Maximum of 5 photo submissions per dancer please. Take lots of photos and then submit your best shots!

5. Photo submissions will not be "judged". Every dancer who submits a photo will have their name entered in the random draw for the prize listed above. (Your name will be entered once, whether you submit 1-5 photos).

 

6. Deadline: Please e-mail your photo contest entries to pickettlineblogAThotmail.com no later than midnight on Saturday November 15.

 

Notes:

- Please; no blurry or really low-resolution photos. High resolution photos are best! Photos may be edited after submission, including cropping and exposure adjustments where appropriate.

- Please be tasteful; no photos that would be embarrassing to the individual(s) in the photos or to NPIDA.

 

- All entries that meet the above criteria will be posted on the blog. The winning photo, if reasonably high resolution, will be included in the 2015 NPIDA Ceili Slide Show!
  

GET CREATIVE, AND GOOD LUCK!
