Drovers’ Tryst Photo Competition 2023
We want you to submit your pictures taken whilst on any of the Tryst activities. This year there will be two categories, each with the prize of a £25 Amazon Voucher.
CATEGORIES ARE:
General Images – Images of scenery, objects, sky and hills of course that capture the essence of your day on the hills. This might mean stones, burns, trees or clouds, mist and rainbows (without the rain we hope).
Action Images – Images of walkers enjoying themselves! Nothing more. We are looking for pictures of people on the hills and on walks. In groups or appropriately distanced if required but showing walkers having fun, out and about and enjoying our fabulous countryside.
So we just want good, creative pictures. You can submit an image from a camera, phone or even an iPad/tablet. We hope that no matter what picture you take and submit it will capture the enjoyment and experience of the Drovers’ Tryst, and the beauty of the open spaces around Perthshire & Strathearn.
The Drovers’ Tryst retains the right to use any photograph submitted to the competition in promotional and publicity material relating to the walking festival. Copyright remains with the photographer.
Prizes. The winners of both sections will each win a £25 Amazon Voucher.
HOW DO I ENTER?

Notes for submission
- . Please give each image a Title and clearly state which category you are submitting it to.

- Please note that, by entering the photo competition, you hereby agree to allow the Tryst to use your image(s) free of charge for publicity purposes including without limitation on their website, posters, literature and press releases. Copyright remains with the photographer.
What Picture Formats should I Use?
The pictures can be either as taken, or edited by you later, and must be saved as either JPEG or TIFF format, in as high quality as possible. 300dpi would be helpful in case we would like to use in printed format in the future on leaflets or posters. Editing should not involve deleting anything from the image, or adding anything in that was not present in the original scene. It can include processing such as toning down highlighted areas, bringing up shadows, changing exposure etc.
Will the Pictures be Published?
Your pictures may go into a Image Gallery on the Drovers’ Tryst website, and will be judged by a panel of judges. A selection from all of the pictures submitted will also be displayed alongside the winner. They may also be shown on the Tryst Facebook page which is accessible via a link from the main Tryst website. They could be used for future leaflets or posters.
What can I Win?
Each winner will receive a £25 Amazon Voucher.
When Must I Submit?
The closing date for entries is Sunday 4th June 2023. Results will be announced around two weeks later.
So please – whatever event you take part in, take some pictures and send them in!
