Regarding international submissions
Tamaki Obuchi, Peony
We are getting some inquiries from photographers overseas regarding submission to ONWARD ‘09. We certainly welcome these submissions and hope ONWARD will be an exciting opportunity to see photographers’ work from all over the world.
We wanted to clarify one point regarding submitting from overseas. Since payment is required in US dollars by check drawn from a U.S. bank, there are a couple of ways to send the entry fee:
- Via PayPal: simply send the fee to info@projectbasho.org. Include the PayPal receipt with your submission materials.
- Via a credit card: when you submit, include a separate sheet with your credit card information. Please provide card holder name, card number, 3 digit security code located on the back of the card, billing address (if it is different from your address), and your signature.
Last year, we had several photographers submit from overseas, and one of them, Tamaki Obuchi from Japan, won the juror award. We are always open to different senses of aesthetics that represent various cultural backgrounds. This makes the competition more visually stimulating.
Again, submissions must be postmarked by November 14th. We hope to see more submissions from overseas this year.
