Competition Details

Decode Gallery, a submission-based photography gallery, is accepting entries into various juried exhibitions. The Gallery, situated in a gorgeous space within a historic neighbourhood in Tucson, Arizona, enjoys a prime location, just steps away from some of Tucson’s most renowned art spaces and conveniently around the corner from the Tucson Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA).

The gallery handles all printing for free for accepted photographers, using an Epson printer with Ultra Premium Luster paper.

Framing: Images are displayed in museum-quality 22″ x 22″ white frames with various pre-cut white mat sizes. The gallery will adjust the size of the final hi-res digital image to fit the mat (but will never crop it).

Sales Commission: If a print is sold, the gallery (Decode Gallery) takes a 50% commission, and the remaining 50% goes to the photographer. The photographer is notified immediately upon receipt of an inquiry.

Key Principles of Fair Usage.

  • Respect for copyright: Organizers should acknowledge and respect the photographer’s ownership of their work.
  • Limited use: Usage rights should be limited to purposes directly related to the marketing/promotion of the competition, photos and photographers.
  • Specific Usage: Detailed information regarding where the images will be used for the promotion of the competition, this should include websites, social media, partners website, media outlets, books & calendars etc.
  • Moral Rights: Photographers should be credited whenever their images are used. This includes publication and Media not owned by the organiser. Editing and manipulation of the images should be kept to a minimum.
  • License Duration: The usage license should be limited in time with a maximum of 5 years, but ideally less.
  • Compensation: Photographers should be compensated for commercial use of their images beyond promotional purposes. This can be detailed in the terms or by a separate agreement.

In essence, fair usage in a photo competition balances the organiser’s need to promote the competition, its winning entries and photographers, with the photographer’s right to control their work and receive any appropriate compensation.
