ABOUT THE CATEGORIES
There are three categories in The Mono Awards: People, Places, Animals. You can enter one or more categories as many times as you like. For more information about the categories check the Terms and Conditions.

IMAGE REQUIREMENTS
Images must have been captured on or after 1 January 2023. (Yes, we do check EXIF data.) Images should be in JPEG (.jpg) or PNG (.png) format and at least 2500 pixels on the longest edge. File size must be no larger than 5MB. Do not include watermarks, logos or any other branding on your images.

WHAT IS MONO?
Images entered in The Mono Awards competition must be monochrome. For the purposes of this competition a monochrome image is defined as one that only includes shades of grey, or shades of a single hue (for example brown in the case of a sepia-style image). Images with more than one hue, such as split-toned, spot-colour, or colour images are not eligible. Images may be converted from colour to black and white or monochrome in post-production. Images may be captured digitally or on film.

CAN I USE GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE?
No. This is a photography competition and, as such, any entered images must have been entirely captured with a camera (digital, film or phone camera) by the entrant. Images created or edited using generative artificial intelligence may not be entered. 

CAN I USE AI NOISE REDUCTION AND SHARPENING?
Yes, but... The use of AI noise reduction and sharpening technology is allowed, as long as the integrity of the original photographic image is maintained. 

WHAT ABOUT DIGITAL IMAGE EDITING?
Up to a point. Adjustments may be made to cropping, noise, sharpness, shadows, highlights and contrast, including dodging and burning. Stitched panoramas, focus stacks, and HDR images, where two or more exposures are captured in the same location and merged to form a single image, are also permitted. Other composite images are not permitted. Cloning of dust spots, scratches, and minor distractions is permitted. Digital lens and perspective correction is permitted. 

For more information about the rules of the competition see the Terms & Conditions.
