• Your photos should be original in either black and white or color.
• You can also mail a disc or USB to CI-UNH, Murkland G14, UNH, Durham 03824 if you don’t know how to edit photos yourself.

A five-person panel will judge and select the winners. The panel will choose one Grand Prize winner, one 2nd Prize winner, three 3rd Prize winners, and five Honorable Mentions.

The Grand Prize winner will receive $300, Yige Wang’s photo album Roads To Tibet, and a CI-UNH T-shirt. The 2nd Prize winner will receive $200, the album, and a CI-UNH T-shirt. The 3rd Prize winners will receive $100, one album, and one CI-UNH T-shirt each. The Honorable Mentions will receive one album and one CI-UNH T-shirt each.

Winners will be announced on January 26 at the CI-UNH Chinese New Year Gala in Johnson Theatre, UNH. CI-UNH will make advanced announcement for that celebration event.
