Judging Criteria

  • While all entries should relate to some aspect of the undersea warfare community, we encourage you to be creative in your choice of what you shoot and how you shoot it.
  • Photos that convey a sense of patriotism and pride in the U.S. Submarine Force are particularly encouraged.
  • Horizontal perspective shows best on the website.
  • Enhancements (including AI) are discouraged.

The NSL is a non-profit membership organization that promotes the importance of submarines and the undersea to our national defense.
