"Nature Category" Electronic Photograph Digital

Nature Category Restrictions 

All photographs must have been captured by light sensitivity, either digitally or on film. Slides or negatives 

may be scanned (by the photographer or commercially) for entry into the competition. 

 

Nature photographs must follow the PSA definition of nature: “Nature photography is restricted to the use of 

the photographic process to depict observations from all branches of natural history, except anthropology and 

archeology, in such a fashion that a well informed person will be able to identify the subject material and to 

certify as to its honest presentation. The story telling value of a photograph must be weighed more than the 

pictorial quality. Human elements shall not be present, except on the rare occasion where those human 

elements enhance the nature story. The presence of scientific bands on wild animals is acceptable. 

Photographs of artificially produced hybrid plants or animals, mounted specimens, or obviously set 

arrangements, are ineligible, as is any form of manipulation that alters the truth of the photographic statement. 

 

No elements may be moved, cloned, added, deleted, rearranged or combined. No manipulation or 

modification is permitted except resizing, cropping, selective lightening or darkening, and restoration 

of original color of the scene. No special effect filters can be applied. Any sharpening must appear natural.
