Photos et concours

Dix-neuvième concours annuel de photographies

Dix-neuvième concours annuel de photographie

Le 19e concours annuel de photographie visant à sélectionner des images pour la couverture du Bulletin de la Société d’entomologie du Canada pour 2023 est en cours. Les images de la couverture sont destinées à représenter l’étendue de l’entomologie couverte par les publications de la Société. Les images d’insectes et d’autres arthropodes en foresterie, en milieu urbain ou en agriculture; les paysages, le terrain, le laboratoire ou les gros plans; ou les activités associées à la physiologie, au comportement, à la taxonomie ou à la lutte intégrée sont toutes souhaitables. Nous avons également besoin de quelques « Insectes vedettes ». Si elle est sélectionnée, votre photographie fera la couverture du Bulletin pendant toute l’année. En outre, les photos gagnantes et une sélection de toutes les photos soumises seront présentées sur le site web de la SEC et utilisées dans les médias sociaux liés à la Société.

Règles du concours :
Les photographies d’insectes et autres arthropodes à tous les stades, activités et habitats sont acceptées. Afin de représenter l’étendue de la recherche entomologique, nous encourageons également les photographies de parcelles de terrain, d’expériences de laboratoire, d’impacts d’insectes, d’activités de recherche, de matériel d’échantillonnage, etc.

Les photographies doivent toutefois être clairement axées sur l’entomologie.

Les images numériques doivent être soumises dans un format JPG de haute qualité, sans bordure, avec le grand côté (largeur ou hauteur) d’un minimum de 1500 pixels.

Chaque personne peut soumettre jusqu’à cinq photos. Une légende doit être fournie avec chaque photographie soumise; les photos sans légende ne seront pas acceptées. Les légendes doivent indiquer la localité, la description de l’activité si le sujet principal est autre qu’un insecte, et toute information intéressante ou pertinente. Les légendes doivent comporter un maximum de 40 mots.

Les personnes qui soumettent des photos doivent être membres en règle de la Société d’entomologie du Canada. Les photographies doivent être prises par la personne qui les soumets, et cette dernière doit en détenir les droits d’auteur. Le droit d’auteur des photographies reste la propriété des photographes, mais une utilisation libre de droits doit être accordée à la SEC pour être incluse sur la couverture d’un volume (4 numéros) du Bulletin, sur le site web de la SEC et dans divers médias sociaux de la SEC (avec mention du nom de la personne qui a pris la photo, bien entendu).
Plutôt qu’un comité de jugement, cette année, l’organisation du concours de photographie ouvrira le vote sur ce site web.

Les photographes des trois meilleures photos retenues se verront attribuer les prix suivants : 1er : 200 $ de chèque-cadeau pour Henry’s Camera. 2e : 100 $ de carte cadeau pour Henry’s Camera. 3e : 50 $ de carte cadeau pour Henry’s Camera.

La date limite de soumission est le 15 septembre 2023.
