I didn't see that. It's a nice thought! I will have to read their rules.
The problem with many contests is that once you enter, you are, in most cases, immediately giving the contest-holder perpetual (i.e. forever) license to your photo to do whatever they wish with it. Utterly no guarantee of getting paid and in fact they are only putting up 5000 dollars for ALL the photos the contestants enter because there is only one winner. It's a cheap way to get tons of free photos for your books/mags/website. Of course you can still sell your own prints of that photo or use it as you wish - but if you ever had a chance to sell it commercially, that chance is gone forever because commercial buyers usually want exclusive rights.
I guess I'm trying to say that contests are great if you are always going to be strictly a hobbyist photographer, but if there is ever a chance that you'd want to do it for your livelihood, you're better off staying away from contests that want perpetual rights. It's a bummer because otherwise I'd sign up and take my chances! I think they should only ask for perpetual photo rights from the winners/honorable mentions.
Sorry for the rant, it certainly wasn't directed at you - I appreciate the heads-up.
2CV had all kinds of blue shades, from very light to very dark blue. Mine was a bit like the "SL_W" of slowtrav logo at the top of the page. I called it electric blue and it was the only one in Dijon. see When you can drive a 2cv you can drive anything. Mine had no heating and when it was freezing I had to stop from time to time to scrape the ice on the windscreen...
