National Park Photo contest - 06-12-2006, 07:51 PM


National park photo contest (sponsered by canon )
Good prizes!!
Make sure you read the rules for this contest
It is only open to amatuer photographers or as canon puts it ( one who has not earned 51% or more of his or her annual income by taking, selling or marketing photographs, whether as an employee or a freelance photographer, during the last three (3) years )

Too bad Big Bend is not on the list of sites eligible for the Grand Prize Trip.

Probable reason that Big Bend isn't one of the parks is that it is so far away from an airport!

Would love to see some of their entries.

Fritch? - 06-14-2006, 12:24 PM


Dang. Four of the items on that list are in the area of Fritch. I can think of many places in Texas I'd rather go - like anywhere else on that list.
