Photo Walk and Photo Contest

Durga Puja Photo Walk and Photo Contest-2017

Sharodiyo Durga Puja, the largest religious festival of Hindu religion.

We are going to organize an event called “Durga Puja Photo Walk and Photo Contest-2017” from Bangladesh Local Guides. In this event, there will be two-part. One Photo Walk and another is Contest on the submitted photo. That means there will be a competition in terms of the pictures you give. Everyone can participate in Contest.

Event: https://goo.gl/RbemyT

Registration: https://goo.gl/forms/bwV3hnIEtSdiLxlB2

Registration can be done until 30th.

The best two (2) photographer from the participants of the contest will receive amazing prizes. And it will be really interesting. The name of the winner will be announced during the announcement of the 75th meeting of Bangladesh Local Guides in the next month. And in the 75th meeting, the prizes will be handed over to them. Will be contacted on the mobile with the winners. So stay with us and win the prizes.

Participation in Contest must be kept in mind.

1. Photos can be of anything that reflects the Puja vibe, such as the idol itself, or the stage, or the crowd, or the offerings in front of the idol…anything and everything that symbolizes the Durga Puja.
2. Images can be taken with any device. For example, Mobile, DSLR etc. The pictures have to be your original pictures, taken by you, one of the local guides, not by any professional photographer. If you are selected, you will have to prove the originality of the photo.
3. We’ll make a folder in Google Drive. There you will have to submit photos in a separate folder with your name. The folder must be named as your Google Account Name. And three of your captured photo should be posted on our Event Page. Add your name, photo number, photo captions with the uploaded photos. But no more than 3 photos.
4. No pictures will be accepted for the contest if they are added in the folder after 1 October midnight, GMT+6.
5. The hashtag must be followed vigilantly. #Sharodiyo17. If you fail to use the hashtag properly or if there is any spelling error, your photo might be disqualified for the contest, even if it was the best photo. So, to be on the safe side, I would just copy and paste the hashtag from here.
6. The photos will be judged by a panel of professional photographer/s and critic.
7. None of the organizers or their family members are eligible to take part in the contest.

Hope we can get some amazing participants from this event.

I have amended the terms and conditions. And also, all rights reserved by Bangladesh Local Guides.

Thank You

Durga Puja Photo Walk and Contest-2017

Participation in Contest must be kept in mind.

1. The picture must be centered on Durga Puja.

2. Images can be taken with any device. For example, Mobile, DSLR etc.

3. 30th September is the last day of Durga Puja and our competition is ending on the same day. But Pictures can be submitted to October 1. After that, the picture will not be taken.

4. We’ll make a folder in Google Drive. There you will have to submit photos in a separate folder with your name. The name of the folder must be named as your name and mobile number. For example: (Sajol Kumar Das-0171xxxxxxxx) Very easy job.

5. To post about Contest in social media, use #Sharodiyo17 tags.

6. The contest will run from 26th to 30th September.


OK, in addition to the above terms and conditions, I would like to add few other things:

  1. The pictures have to be your original pictures, taken by you, one of the local guides, not by any professional photographer.

  2. If you are selected, you will have to prove the originality of the photo.

  3. Only Durga Puja 2017 photos will be eligible for the contest. If you have covered last years puja, it might not be eligible for this years contest.

  4. The hashtag must be followed vigilantly. #Sharodiyo17. If you fail to use the hashtag properly or if there is any spelling error, you photo might be disqualify for the contest, even if it was the best photo. So, to be on the safe side, I would just copy and paste the hashtag from here.

  5. No pictures will be accepted for contest if they are added in the folder after 1 October midnight, GMT+6.

  6. Photos can be of anything that reflects the Puja vibe, such as the idol itself, or the stage, or the crowd, or the offerings in front of the idol…anything and everything that symbolizes the Durga Puja.

@SajolKDas , i think adding the photo with mobile number might not be a good idea. It will be a privacy concern, particularly for the girls. The contestants should create a folder using their google account name only. That way we will also know if they are local guides or not. You might want to review the terms and conditions once again. :slight_smile:
