Question on the usual rules for photo competitions?

Hello, I haven't posted here in quite a while but I've recently been getting out again with the camera, and yesterday I got a few wildlife photos that I was very pleased with. I thought I may enter them in some competitions for the experience, not that I think they'll win anything.

I was just wondering, what are the usual rules for competitions, specifically around sharing images beforehand? As in, can I put the images here or on my social media pages and then enter them at a later date? For some reason I have a feeling I may have heard that the images have to have not been shared.

Finally, any opinions on which competition may be good for a wildlife photo?

Thanks for any insight.
 
I'm afraid that your question is too general.

Every promoter is free to make up their own rules so you need to get a copy of the rules for the competition you're considering and go through it yourself. I've never entered a competition in my 55 years of photography because reading the rules invariably cures me of any desire to take part.

Of course, others will hold different opinions.
