Any student of any age from any country who is on a full-time or part-time course can take part. Black-and-white prints of at least 8x10 inches are required on the theme of "pretty ugly" (what seems unattractive can look extraordinary from another angle): ILFORD or Kentmere film, printed in the darkroom by the author, each print mailed with an entry label; participation is free, the number of entries is unlimited, and the prints must arrive by January 31, 2027. The winner receives the title of ILFORD Photo UK Student Photographer of the Year 2026/27, professional printing and mounting of the image at HARMAN Lab, a 35mm film camera and 200 pounds of ILFORD products, and the runner-up receives 150 pounds of products.
