It is also a condition of entry that photographs or facsimiles of photographs awarded with a commendation or higher award (“Awarded Photographs”) may be used by The Club for the purposes including, without limitation, documenting, reporting and promoting the competition into which Awarded Photographs are entered or a similar competition or exhibition (“Agreed Use”).
