FRRR

For 2023 APS and the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) have collaborated to provide potential opportunities for Participant images to be used to support FRRR events and activities.  FRRR is a not-for profit community-based organisation that focuses on regional and rural community needs and solutions.

As a Participant your images may not be selected; however, if selected the following will occur

• Your email/phone details will be provided to FRRR
• FRRR may contact you to ask for a different file configuration for use with social media or other publications
• Your images will remain your copyright; however, if published in any way you will be credited as follows
  • APS Member: ‘photographer name’ (for APS Members)
  • APS Photo Walk Day Participant: ‘photographer name’ (for non-members)
• You will not be paid or remunerated in anyway if your image/s are selected and published.

If you are part of a Club submission, the Club Photo Walk Day contact/coordinator will be the first point of contact by FRRR.

If you are approached by FRRR to use one of your images you may choose

• 1. not to provide an image 
  2. have your image used only for free online and printed publications, social media opportunities with FRRR campaigns and activities furthering FRRR’s charitable purposes. 
  3. have your image used in accordance with 2. and with commercial activities such as published calendars or festive cards.
