What makes a good cover photo?

We’re looking for a picture that sums up everything wonderful about bicycle travel. The winning image should inspire people to run out the front door and jump on their bicycles. A good cover shot should also be:

  • Clear and in focus.
  • Striking and colourful, with a clear subject (not too cluttered).
  • Available in a high resolution: 300 dpi and 2,000px across the longest side.
  • Not overly manipulated in Photoshop, aside from minor touch-ups like cropping.
