Eligibility:
Entries are welcome from ocean enthusiasts, scuba divers, beach combers and water lovers worldwide whose photo(s) document the trash they have collected. If the contestant is under 18 years of age, a parent or legal guardian must complete and sign the submission and model release forms. Management, employees and families of the contest sponsors and their subsidiaries are prohibited from winning any prizes.
Submission Guidelines:
Participants are encouraged to collect trash from underwater dives as well as beach and coastal visits or clean-ups. Trash can be collected at any time and does not need to be during a sanctioned event. Once trash has been collected, individuals should take a photo(s) of the trash collected, with or without themselves in the photo(s), and submit the photo(s). Photo(s) can be of a single item or of multiple items.
Two monthly winners will be chosen by Green Diver Initiative and Roddenberry Dive Team officials and will be based on the most unique piece of trash and the largest amount of trash collected. Each photo submission counts as a single entry into the contest. There is not a limit to the number of photos that may be submitted by any one person. Each complete entry is eligible for the monthly and grand prizes.

Entries may be black and white or color digital scans or digital camera images. Scans should be at least 300 dpi. Please keep your file sizes down to no greater than 1 to 1.5 MB per image (compressed size). Preferred image format is JPEG. Please do not send prints or slides. Should you win and we need a higher resolution version of your photo we will contact you at that time.
