20 Tips for Photo Awards Success | What Judges Are Looking For | Awards Mistakes To Avoid

Описание: On the back of our yearly photography competition, The TOG Awards winners being announced, I thought it would be handy to go through some awards mistakes to avoid when entering photography awards and competitions - including what judges are looking for!

Common mistakes to avoid when you want to achieve awards success start at the very beginning when you're choosing the image to submit, right through to naming your image, the file size and type, and what the judges are looking for within your submission.
