Definitions

Best author. FlAP will oer to the organisers of salons with FlAP Patronage a special badge (light blue) to be awarded to the best author for each salon number.
The one who has achieved the highest number of total acceptances of all the sections of the salon added together will be proclaimed “best author”.
In the event of a tie, the organiser will decide irrevocably. The name of the best author must be mentioned in the catalogue.

FIAP Definition of the black and white photography (monochrome).
A black and white work fitting from the very dark grey (black) to the very clear grey (white) is a monochrome work with the various shades of grey.
A black and white work toned entirely in a single colour will remain a monochrome work able to stand in the black and white category; such a work can be reproduced in black and white in the catalogue of a salon under FIAP Patronage.
On the other hand a black and white work modified by a partial toning or by the addition of one colour becomes a colour work (polychrome) to stand in the colour category; such a work requires colour reproduction in the catalogue of a salon under FIAP Patronage.

PT Definition:”A Photo Travel image must express the feeling of a time and place, and portray a land, its distinctive features or culture in its natural state.
There are no geographical limitations. Close-up pictures of people or objects must include distinguishable environment.
Techniques that add to, relocate, replace or remove any element of the original image, except by cropping, are not permitted.
All adjustments must appear natural. Conversion to full monochrome is acceptable. Derivations including infrared are unacceptable.”

NOTE: "With the sole act of submitting his/her images or files to a salon under FIAP Patronage,
the entrant accepts without exception and with no objection that the submitted images can be investigated by FIAP to establish if these obey to FIAP regulations and definitions even if the entrant is not a member of FIAP;
that FIAP will use any means at its disposal for this undertaking;
that any refusal to cooperate with FIAP or any refusal to submit the original files as captured by the camera, or failure to provide sufficient evidence,
will be sanctioned by FIAP and that in case of sanctions following the non compliance with FIAP regulations,
the name of the entrant will be released in any form useful to inform the breaches of the rules.
It is recommended to leave the EXIF data in the submitted files intact in order to ease eventual investigations."
