Photos should epitomise the adventurous spirit of Lonely Planet. Originality, creativity and capturing a moment are more important than whether the photo is ‘professional’. You may submit as many photos as you wish, but each photo must be uploaded separately.
Prizes:
- Grand Prize - A round the world air tickets for two to the total value of AU$10,000
- Finalist Prizes - 200 finalists will each receive one of 200 Nokia handsets valued at up to AUD$800 each (Nokia’s N97 and N97 Mini models).

Photos must be in jpeg format (jpg, jpeg, JPG or JPEG). Images should be at least 320×240 pixels and less than 6MB. All pictures must be cropped to be horizontal/landscape in orientation when you submit your entry, however your original image file will be the file viewed by the judges. Images should also be oriented correctly (ie. not turned sideways or upside down). Images that have been digitally edited with software are accepted.
To enter you must submit your name, email address, and country of residence plus upload a photo that you have taken yourself of your travels, a description of the photo and the location in which the photo was taken via the promotional website at lonelyplanet.com/win.
