For the General Photo, if you were concerned about people sending in older photos, then you could request a validity shot be taken first or after.

If the winning photo was then questioned, the member would need to send thru the validity shot. Validity shot could be of the same area\session with a paper with a key word on it.

For example, if i wanted to hit the river to fish and wanted to use that session to also take some photos for the comp, before i would start, i would take a photo with the key word on a photo. The subsequent photos would not need it. Quick and easy.

You could also ask that the dates be hardcoded into the photo via the phone\camera within the digital image (not the orange date, but within the file itself) but that may be too technical for some.

there are literally thousands of excellent general fishing photos that can easily be found on the internet!

I think the only way a General Fishing Photo comp can work is if the photo actually has a physical piece of paper with http://www.fishing-victoria.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; written on it.

I want to keep it simple. I do not want any debate around the authenticity of photos in the comp.

If you want to enter a "general" photo comp, then write http://www.fishing-victoria.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; on a piece of paper, place it in the photo and enter your photo.
