As usual, it pays to read the fine print:

You agree that any image entered into the competition can be published
by
Destination Finder in any format without further consent.

In other words, by entering the contest, you are essentially giving away
publication rights to every image you enter.

Amazing.

Not only without conest, but without any compensation, ever.

Amazing.


Which makes this co-called "contest" merely another troll for free
material.

Naturally, they'll someday be "tempted" to make some more money off of
all of the 'photo contest' entries by selling them all to some Stock
Photography outfit.

And since the registrant of the domain uses an IDentity Shield service
to keep their information private, you don't even know *who* you're
giving your copyrighted works away to.
