Contest Rules & Deadline

The 2025 calendar photo contest is now running! Deadline to submit your photos is May 1st 2024.

How to Submit:

  • You may submit up to 10 photos in total for consideration.
  • All photos must be taken in the Tug Hill region.
  • We need photos in all seasons (Winter, Spring, Summer & Fall).
  • When submitting your photos use the following naming format: Last_First_Location_Description_MonthTaken.
  • Email your photos to our Communications & Marketing Director, Emily Males at emales@tughilltomorrowlandtrust.org.

You can also share your photos with us by using the free file transferring site called We Transfer. Simply add your photos, add your email address, and email them to emales@tughilltomorrowlandtrust.org. This site limits you to 2GB per transfer. If your files are over 2GB you may send them in batches or compress them. Here are directions for compressing files on a PC and MAC.

A note about resolution and dpi:

For your photo to be used as one of the main, large month photos it must be a high enough resolution to be printed without becoming pixelated. In general, printing terms this is 300 dpi, with a resolution of 2550 pixels x 3300 pixels.

Typically, iPhone photos do not achieve a high enough resolution – but they can be used for the smaller inset photos throughout the calendar.

By submitting your photo to our Tug Hill Photo Contest, you grant Tug Hill Tomorrow Land Trust the right to reproduce, distribute, and publicly display the photographs and the right to use your name in publications.
