The  Ball Jointed Doll Convention, Austin is taking submissions for a photo contest.

From the convention staff:

PHOTO CONTEST
NOVEMBER 20, 2018 – JANUARY 20, 2019

We all know that Santa has a list, and is checking it twice…he wants to find out who’s “naughty” and “nice”. Well, Santa isn’t the only one who wants to know…so does BJDC!

Announcing the BJDC 2019 Photo Contest! The contest is open to photographers around the globe– both attendees and non-attendees are welcome to submit their photos! The theme of the 2019 convention is “Christmas All Year Round”. Your photograph can have a Christmas theme or depict the spirit of the holidays.

There are two categories to enter:
Naughty: Pictures should depict Santa’s “naughty” list—a doll being a little mischievous or, behaving badly…make us laugh with your funny photo!
Nice: Pictures should depict Santa’s “nice” list—a doll being sweet and generally being a good boy or girl…make us smile with your charming photo!
