(See below for size and mounting restrictions)
Pictorial Monochrome images are judged both for their technical and pictorial merit. The image must be properly exposed, be in focus, and have appropriate depth of field. A Pictorial Monochrome image should have strong composition; pleasing quality; and texture, pattern, and/or tone impact. The content is unrestricted.

Monochrome images must be black and white, or black and white plus one fully-toned* color.

*Fully-toned means that a single tint (such as cyan or sepia) is applied across the entire image.

Prints are judged not only for subject matter and impact - that is their pictorial content - but also for technical print quality. Print quality and presentation are also considered: including, for example the paper texture used or, where applicable, the quality of mounting and/or matting - and their suitability for the subject matter.

Prints must be submitted unmounted. No mounting or matting is permitted. Small Color prints must be 8.5 x 12 inches maximum.
