Leslie, if you don't have the time or energy to return to this message board to read what others recommend, then I don't have the energy to do the legwork and research for you. The internet is not a bunch of people waiting to serve you. As the saying goes, "God helps those who help themselves."

Now, for others who are interested in photo competitions, let your fingers do the walking. A search for "photo competitions" on Google produces a plethora (I've always wanted to use that word) of links to web sites promoting photo competitions, including amazingly enough a web site named www.photocompetitions.com

Photo competitions which require participants to sign away ownership rights to their photographs are also something to avoid. And the International Library of Photography monthly photo contest is really a company which wants to sell you a $70 book. Remember P.T. Barnum - when the deal is too good to be true, it's usually a con.
