"Let Your Best Photo Travel The World"

I know a fair number of people who really like to take pictures, and I figured this contest might be interesting for a few of you. Basically the contest, run through Flying Blue (the frequent flyer program for Air France, Air Europe, Kenya Airways, Aircalin, and Tarom), consists of uploading (up to 10) travel photos to the site and the judging panel will select three winners. The winners will have their photos used on luggage tags that are given to elite members for up to two years. Additionally, winners will receive a one-year membership to Flying Blue's platinum status (which includes SkyTeam Elite+), 200,000 Flying Blue miles, and a luggage tag with their winning photo. The contest is available here and runs until midnight on July 9 (it says inclusive, so I'm assuming at the end of the 9th) Paris time (GMT+2). Currently one of my pictures is featured in the gallery. :)

For those of you that are concerned about rights and licensing (which of course is a legitimate concern):
Flying Blue only has the rights to display your photograph in the gallery during the contest period. If you don't win nothing else will happen. If you do win, in exchange for the prize, Flying Blue is essentially granted irrevocable rights to your photo for the luggage tags and for use on its website and social media pages for two years. This also includes image modification and text overlay for purposes including advertisements.
