The submitted image must be a tif or jpg file of at least 300 dpi resolution, no less than 150 mm square, and must be previously unpublished.
The participant must have the right to use the image and allow us a non-exclusive right to include it on the cover.

The closing date to be considered for inclusion on a BBA journal cover is October 1, 2024.

We will publish a short editorial in the journal showcasing the image and will also provide a high-resolution copy of the cover image and a printed copy to the recipient.
