• You own the rights to your images and take full responsibility for their content.

• The image was not generated primarily by artificial intelligence. (Post-processing using tools like Photoshop is fully acceptable.)
• Images were made “off the clock”. Show us your work made as a personal project, made on your own time, and for yourself.
