• The images with the highest scores in each division (Adult and Junior) will be named as the First, Second, and Third place winners accordingly. As a result, there will be a total of six “Division Winners.” • “Category Winners” will be named for receiving the highest scoring image in each main category (Landscape, Flora, Wildlife, People in Nature, and Abstract) regardless of division. Again, the judges’ scores will be used by the “score auditors” to make this determination. • The “Photographers’ Choice” Award will be judged only by the photographers participating in the competition. In order to ensure fairness, photographers will not be allowed to vote for themselves. To ensure this, photographers will be given a special ballot with their own ID number printed at the top. Ballots will be checked to guarantee that a photographer’s ballot does not contain a vote for himself or herself. Those votes that are not in compliance will be void. • The Shoot the Hills Photography Competition Co
