2009 photo contest question

[toverman]

The rules of the current contest at Arlington Camera mention that the photos need to be "amateur." Does that mean one can be a professional but submit images taken not as part of the business? Like family photos, or random macro shots, etc.?

Want to make sure before I take the time to enter! Thanks!

Thanks so much for your inquiry about the rules of our contest.
In the interest of fairness to aspiring photographers with less experience than professionals, we are limiting entries to amateurs only. Thanks again for asking.

Thanks! And ... rats! :-)
