AIS Photo Contests

Every year the American Iris Society sponsors a photo contest. Concentrating generally on irises, the people who grow and hybridize them, and their use in garden or natural settings, the contest is open to anyone who submits a picture. The specific categories vary from year to year, and are open to adults and youth alike with separate awards for youth submissions. Please respect the fact that the photographs remain the property of the photographer and fall under the purview of U.S. Copyright laws.
