About 15th Annual AMC Photo Contest (2009)
Participants can submit up to three photos in each of these three categories:
“Kids, Families, and Adults Outdoors”
Can you capture the joy of being outdoors on camera? If so, this category is for you. Show us kids and adults, individuals and families enjoying their favorite outdoor activities.
“Scenics and Nature”
The natural splendor of the Northeast comes in many forms. Mountain vistas, sunsets, foliage, flowers, and wildlife are among the many popular subjects that fit into this category.
“AMC in Action”
What does being an AMC member mean to you? Whether it’s volunteering, participating in a chapter activity, or visiting an AMC destination, we would like to see what you’ve been up to this year.
How to Enter:
1. Register for the contest at www.outdoors.org/photocontest
2. Upload your entries to this Flickr group.
3. Tag each photo with the appropriate category: kidsadults09, scenics09, or amc09. Correctly tagging photos is important, as that’s how entries will be sorted for the judges. (For images featuring AMC huts, lodges, and camps, please add a second tag with the destination name.)
4. Create a title for the image when prompted.
5. Submit up to three images in each of the three contest categories.
