APCO announces an innovative initiative, rewarding pilots for their Paragliding/Paramotoring action photographs published in the industry magazines.

How would you like to receive up to 1000$ for doing what you do every weekend anyway?

Sounds good, right? All you have to do is just take your camera with you when you go flying and send us your best Apco photos!

We at APCO will select and distribute the photos to the Paragliding/Paramotoring magazines.

The photographer will be credited by his name.

For every picture published APCO will reward the pilot who submitted it with cash prizes and his name will be posted on our "Apco's Photographers Hall of Fame".

We at APCO will not use pictures that we did not send to the magazines for our own use without prior consent from the sender.

Photo requirements are:

• The pictures have to be of APCO's current paragliders/paramotors range.
• The pictures have to be unedited and in jpg format.
• The pictures have to be in high resolution, minimum 300 dpi, for an A4 page size or about 1.5 megabite file size( 5 megapixel camera and up).
• Your personal contact details - full name, E-mail, country and phone number (include these details in the file name).
• Description of the photo, what is in the photograph, where was it taken and when (include these details also in the file name).
• Optional - a short interesting story of the background for how this picture "came to life" would be helpful to publish the photographs.
