Filed under: Nature Photography Articles — ForestWander @ 4:03 pm

Throughout the internet there are several types of photography contests. If you are a novice, amateur or a professional there are contests for any category that you would like to pursue. It is important that you are cautious about where you sign up and provide details when submitting information and your work to photography contests. You should do some preliminary investigation of the site that is sponsoring the photography contest. Make certain the contest offering is not a scam to simply get your personal information and steal your identity and your work. It is best to submit your work and details to a well-known entity and site.
