Wareham Land Trust holds photography contest
The Wareham Land Trust is holding a photography contest that focuses on the natural beauty of Wareham.
The organization encourages participation from photographers of all ages and backgrounds. There is no fee to enter. Images may feature portraits of wildlife, plant life, natural landscapes, or people enjoying nature. There are two categories: The Solitude and Serenity of Nature – flora, fauna, landscapes, or seascapes (no people) and People Enjoying the Land (at least one person in a natural setting).
Two prizes will be awarded in each category. One of the prizes in each category goes to a young photographer 12 years of age or younger. Prizes include, but are not limited to, tee shirts, tote bags, and fanny packs. Photos will be judged on originality, technical excellence, composition, overall impact, artistic merit, and subject matter relevance.
Entries must be emailed by 31 October 2015, and must be sent as as JPEGs, 1MB or larger, to JWiliszowski@hotmail.com. Multiple entries are accepted. Use the subject line: WLT Photo Contest, and include the following information:
1. Photographer’s name (and age if 12 or younger)
2. Category: The Solitude and Serenity of Nature or People Enjoying the Land
3. Location of the photograph
