Last year’s winner was Clayton Damme for his photo “Latraviesa,” which was taken in Cabo Polonio, Uruguay. |
More than 40 pictures were submitted last year and reflected the personal experiences of people traveling within the United States as well as to other countries.
Every year, international visitors from more than 60 countries come to campus and many faculty, staff and students travel around the world. Everyone is welcome to share their experiences, through pictures, and provide a sense of what it is like to live, work or play in a land that is not your home.
Rules for the contest are as follows:
- Photographs must have been shot by the entrant since Nov. 8, 2013.
- Limit one entry per person.
- No entry fee.
- Digital photographs should be taken at the highest resolution possible and must be submitted in a .jpeg format.
- Files submitted may not be larger than 5mb.
- Submit a brief description (50 words or less) of the photo.
- Digitally or otherwise enhanced or altered photos will not be accepted.
- By entering the contest, entrants grant UNMC a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive license to display, distribute and reproduce, in whole or in part, in any media now existing or subsequently developed, for any educational, promotional and publicity purposes.
Judging will be conducted by UNMC Public Relations staff members Rich Watson, multimedia manager, and Liz Kumru, publications editor.
The top five winning photographs and one best in show chosen will be announced in UNMC Today on Nov. 3, displayed on campus during International Week and displayed on UNMC’s website and other social media outlets.
