Photo Contest

2025 LKRA Photo Contest Rules

 

It’s time for one of our favourite events of the year - the Annual Photo Contest!  The winning photos will be included in the 2027 calendar, posted on our LKRA website in the fall of 2025 and included in next the 2026 Yearbook. They may also pop up, from time to time in our monthly E-News. The 2027 Calendar will be available for purchase all 2026 summer long and at the 2026 Regatta.​ And, this year we’ve decided to simplify the contest entry process to make it even easier for you to participate!

 

The rules of the contest are:  

​

Eligibility:

• The photo contest is open to families of all paid-up 2025 LKRA members. 

• You must have taken the photo you submit and not have submitted the photograph in previous years.

• Photos by professional photographers are not eligible. Amateur photographers only, please.

• Digital entries only. The entries must be sent electronically as jpeg files (as an attachment to your email).

• High-resolution photos are best for reproduction. We will be unable to accept low resolution photos.

• For good reproduction in print, a digital image should ideally have a resolution of 300 pixels per inch (PPI). If using a mobile device, ensure your camera is set to the highest resolution. The jpeg size should be at least one Mb.

• A maximum of three photos per person will be accepted.

• The preference is for photos to be taken in landscape format.   

• For a photo where a person is recognizable, you must have permission (and in the case of a child or minor, 
  permission from the parent or guardian.)

•  By submitting the photos, you are giving permission to the LKRA to reproduce your photo(s) in print and  
  electronically. You will receive a photo credit.

• Judges and immediate family are not eligible. 

Categories: 

Again this year we are asking you to send along your best photos. Don’t worry about the category. Pictures might be landscapes, wildlife, still life or capture any great Kosh life moment throughout the year.      

Submission:

• Email your entries to photocontest@kasshabog.ca  

• Deadline for submissions in September 10, 2025.

• Provide your name (and the photographer’s name if different) and cottage address in the email.

• Name each jpeg filename with: YourName1 (or 2, or 3).jpeg; for example: b.livingston1.jpeg

Winner Selection:

• Pictures will be judged based on originality, creativity and uniqueness.

Thank you to all of our participants!
