The photographs may be in colour or in black and white and should be assigned a title in English. The jpg format should be at least 300dpi, such as to allow printing at 50x70 cm (maximum size). An examining committee will assess the submitted works for admission to the final. The works will not be returned and will be kept by the Association Aeneis 2000, which retains the rights to only publish or display them for the scheduled aims of the Competition and guarantees always to cite the photographer. The 24 winning photographs will be selected, according to the unquestionable judgement of the committee that is not open to appeal. One of the 24 will be judged and awarded a special merit. All the photographs admitted to the final, will be displayed on the 7th May 2017 in an exhibition that will take place at the former Dominican Cloister of San Vito dei Normanni (Brindisi Province of Italy).
