Entries should catch IAM members at work in unposed photos. First, Second, Third Place and Honourable Mention photos will win a cash prize and will appear in the 2018 IAM Calendar. <!--more-->Each month of the calendar will feature a winning entry. Two dollars from each calendar sale is donated to Guide Dogs of America, the IAM official charity.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, we can\u2019t have an IAM Calendar without you and sadly last year there wasn\u2019t a single entry from Canada! You won\u2019t get your pictures in the calendar if you don\u2019t enter. So get out your camera, and go capture your fellow members at work.<\/p>\n<p>The theme of the contest is IAM Members at Work, the photos should be unposed and should depict IAM members doing their jobs. Don\u2019t forget to ensure that members at work should be wearing all appropriate safety gear and following proper safety procedures. Digital photos should be taken with a camera set on the \u201cfine\u201d setting. <em>Low resolution photographs may be disqualified.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There is no fee for participating in the contest. Entries will be evaluated based on appeal, content and photographic skill. The decision of the judges is final. The deadline for the contest is June 3, 2017. Winners will be announced in the fall of 2017.<\/p>\n<p>You may download your complete contest entry package by going to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.goiam.org\/photocontest\">http:\/\/www.goiam.org\/photocontest<\/a>, or you may request one from the IAM Communications Department by phoning 301-967-4520 or email: <a href=\"mailto:tcrutchfield@iamaw.org\">tcrutchfield@iamaw.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So come on Canada, show us what our members are made of, and enter the contest today.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:0px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - http:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top:5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Pinterest\",\"Email\",\"Print\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"2017 IAM Photo Contest is here!\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each year IAM members are encouraged to enter their best pictures in the IAM Photography contest, which is open to all IAM members in good standing.
