The 21th Annual TBA Photo Contest Winner

Its time to start our most popular event the TBA Photo Contest. Offically we start Septemeber first but we are opening early to get every one started. .Get your cameras or cell phone ready. We are going to have some fun! Summary

Who can participate: Any TBA member can submit photos with a limit of 10 photos per member. We expanded that from 5 previously. Any Tonkinese pet owner who has purchased their Tonk from a TBA member can also submit photos but please identify the TBA member/breeder you obtained your cat from.

Types of Photos: The major requirement is that the photo contain a Tonkinese. It may also contain other cats, animals, children, toys etc. Any type of photo is acceptable. They can range from humorous, to candid showing personality, to beauty shots showing a lovely Tonkinese. You are only limited by your imagination and the cooperation of the cats.

Restrictions: The photo cannot contain a recognizable adult TBA member(s) or other recognizable adult(s) such as judges or celebrities. We want this contest to be anonymous, so we select the winners. Each member may submit a total of 5 photos. No professional copyrighted photos. Some photos may be too small or fuzzy to use. If that's the case I will contact you about it.

Voting Categories: There are no categories when submitting photos. When we vote, members will be able to vote for up to 5 photos in several categories. The same photo can be voted for in more than one category but each photo will win in only one catagory.

The categories are:

• Cover of the Aqua Eye
• Best Kitten
• Best Adult
• Best Personality
• Best Showing Sociability (with people, other animals such as dogs, or other cats)
• Best Showing Humor
• Best Showing Creativity (meaning digitally enhanced or original art work)
