how to submit the photo? must use SLR?

likely a few days prior to the submission start date. No, you don’t have to
use SLR – any decent cellphone cameras and pocket cameras are fine. For more
details regarding the contest, please visit Nendonesia’s Facebook Page. ^^
any criteria, size of photo, camera usage, or material & ornament to be used? =_=”
All of those details are available at Nendonesia’s Facebook Page, but I have
just re-posted the Rules and Terms in this post for your convenience. ^^
Looks like I won’t be able to participate as I don’t live in Indonesia.
Yep, unfortunately … maybe next time. m(_ _)m
I look forward to other people’s submissions. I love looking at photos. ^ ^
My tip is that if you don’t own a good camera, make sure you have ALOT of light. Not over exposing it, but enough light so that the photo won’t be grainy or blurry. Regardless of camera, lighting is one of the most important thing.
Thanks for the tip! Yep, I agree that lighting is one of the most essential factors in good photography. ^^

You don’t need to have a Facebook account to join. The Rules and Term & Conditions have been re-posted here (from the Facebook page) for your convenience and both the FB page and this post will be updated (if any) at the same time too. ^^
We didn’t make this Contest available for international Nendonesian because it is quite expensive to ship the prizes if the winner lives abroad – not to mention the difficulties in tracking the shipment. We might consider to allow international entry in the future contests though.
Sorry that you cannot join this Contest, Aya. m(_ _)m
