The competition, which will run from February 1 to April 30, 2009, is
open to all Filipinos currently residing in the country, male or

"timeless" photos of (1) People who are indigenous to Baguio and
showing their unique culture; (2) Places of interest and other tourist
destinations in Baguio; (3) Events that capture romance, festivities
and other fun activities in Baguio.
Each entrant may submit entries of any subject he or she wishes
provided that the same has not been entered in any other photo
contests. Published and unpublished works will be accepted, and
participants whose entry/ies get included in the final selection
process will be asked to submit original digital files and/or
negatives of their entries.
Contest participants can enter any number of photos taken using
digital or conventional film camera. Entries must be printed in full
color, size 8" x 10", using Fuji Crystal archive paper, sealed in a
long brown envelope and submitted together with an information sheet.
Only minimal digital retouching is allowed. Enhancements are limited
to cropping, color level and contrast adjustment. Entries found to
have been manipulated digitally will be disqualified automatically.
Contest judges include renowned travel photographers George Tapan and
Wig Tysmans, famed cinematographer Romy Vitug and Ronald Jayme,
section editor of Manila Bulletin's Picture Perfect.
"The photo entries should capture the essence of the timelessness and
beauty of Baguio as a travel destination," explains Marivic Del Pilar,
treasury and marketing head of Victory Liner. "For this contest, we
are looking at photos that show some of the reasons why lots of
tourists continue to flock to Baguio, especially during summer. The
photos should also be celebratory in nature, are evocative and yet
still spell fun."
Del Pilar added the contest is the company's own little way of giving
back to the Baguio City community, who has always been supportive of
their bus services up North. The country's summer capital has been a
major route of Victory Liner's for over 60 years. And as Baguio
celebrate its Centennial Year, Victory Liner honors such milestone
with a photo contest that gives credence to its attractions' timeless
appeal to tourists and fun-loving Filipinos.
