You’ve spent all summer diving, or possibly sorting through your underwater images from past dive trips. What’s next? A scrapbook of images? Or possibly choosing the best photo for your family holiday card? Or how about entering an underwater photo contest?
PADI Diving Society is looking for the next Society membership card photo and it could be yours!
Each year, the PADI Diving Society introduces a limited-edition Society membership card. In the past PADI offices have used photos from our own collections or invited renowned underwater photographers to provide striking images. However, with the growth of
Digital Underwater Photography, and more and more divers capturing their underwater experiences, PADI Diving Society decided to do something different for 2010 and create a worldwide search!
Judges from PADI will select three regional winners. Each PADI Diving Society office will then submit their regional winners in the 2010 Member Card Online Voting Contest. Voting will be open to everyone in October– look for opportunities to vote on this page, MySpace and Facebook pages.
The final winner will be announced November 2009 and will receive a certificate, global recognition, plus bragging rights!
How can you participate?
Submit up to three photos of your best underwater or diving lifestyle photos as high resolution images minimum 300 dpi; in a horizontal digital image in proportion to 9.56 x 6.4cm or 3.75 x 2.5 inches.
How to Submit Your Entry:
1. Email all entries (maximum of three photographs) to your affiliated
