The Idaho Native Plant Society is requesting that members submit photographs of plants native to Idaho for use in an INPS calendar and/or in INPS documents which promote native plants and habitats and bring greater public awareness to the special flora of Idaho.

Who may submit photos?: INPS members or their immediate family members are eligible to submit photos.

What is the deadline date?: Photos will only be accepted until 7/31/2009 in order to give the committee time to judge the photos and produce a 2010 calendar.

What format of photo is acceptable?: High resolution digital images may be submitted. Prints and slides should be digitized by the entrant so the photo may be submitted in digitized format. A digital image to be eligible for a main page of the calendar must be of sufficient resolution to create a high quality print approximately 6” in height x 9” in width (landscape) or approximately 7.5" in height x 5" in width (portrait).

Each image file must have the photographer’s name and contact information embedded in the file properties (IPTC metadata). You should locate these fields by right-clicking on the image and then going to the properties option. Digital images must be high resolution in order to be published in the calendar.

How do I submit a photo entry?: Submit digital images by email or by USPS on a CD. In either case the image must be accompanied by the entry form.
To submit by email send image and entry form to
inps-photo@idahonativeplants.org (use INPS photo contest in the subject line).
To submit by USPS send CD of images accompanied by entry form to the following address:

Copyright and granting of rights?: The photographer will retain the copyright of images he or she submits. INPS will have the right to use the images submitted in documents promoting Idaho native plants for two years from the deadline date for submittal.
