Your last chance to enter the world’s greatest action and adventure sports photography contest is rapidly approaching – all submissions must be uploaded to redbullillume.com by April 30th. While thousands of images have already been submitted, the dedicated mission of the Red Bull Illume Image Quest is to leave no incredible image behind – so get your submissions in while you can!

Photographers can enter as many as five images in each of the 10 categories so there's no limit to the range of inspirational shots that can be entered, whether they're action, lifestyle or

sequence shots. See the full list of categories here: www.redbullillume.com/contest/categories.html

It costs nothing. Anyone can enter. The only qualification? Your images need to be amazing. Whether you’re a published pro or an aspiring amateur, now is the time to enter the Red Bull Illume Image Quest.

The images are judged by an international panel of 50 photo editors from prominent publications whose task is to select the 50 best shots, including 10 category winners and one overall winner. The finalist images will then be unveiled in Hong Kong at the end of August before travelling the world as a night-time exhibition that's seen by thousands.

More information, including rules and entry details, can be found online at www.redbullillume.com/contest/rules.html. Submissions close April 30th, 2013.
