The maximum number of submissions per author is 9, regardless of the category in which the works are submitted. A submission can be either a single photo or a photo series. Each individual submission can contain up to 20 photos, but the curators reserve the right not to display the entire series at the group exhibition if there are space or technical limitations.

Works signed by multiple authors are treated as a single group submission, but each author in the group can additionally submit up to 9 works independently. By submitting their works, participants agree to grant the organizer the rights to display and print the works for promotional purposes related to the festival, without compensation.
