Had a look at this and you have to pay to enter and we get to use your pictures.... having never entered a competition is this the normal terms and conditions?

16) By entering the competition, you grant Take a view and its supporting partners a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license to reproduce, enlarge, publish or exhibit, on any media, the images for any purpose connected with the competition. This may include, but is not limited to:

inclusion in the Take a view book
display at any exhibitions
on a secure web browser for judging purposes
on the Take a view website and on the websites of sponsors and supporters
for use in press releases to be distributed to national, regional & specialist press giving information about or promoting the competition
on any merchandise commissioned by the organisers
Entrants also agree that the organisers can sub-license images to the media for reproduction in connection with the competition.

Yep ... That looks to have covered all their bases. :shake:

Shame but even if I thought that I had a winning shot I would still not enter into this.

Not keen of the idea of charging for a competition -

the reproduction is pretty normal I think, allowing them to promote the competition etc without additional costs. You still own the copyright & the reproduction is only allowed if related to the competition itself
