Photo USA Contest

What's your favorite place in the United States? Is it the beauty of the Grand Canyon? The inspiring Statue of Liberty? The enormous Hoover Dam? Or maybe somewhere a little off the beaten path?

Regardless of your preference, the U.S. Embassy is inviting you to send us your best – or your favorite – photo of the United States.

The picture can be of anywhere at all in the U.S., provided it was taken by you. Every picture we get will be showcased in an online photo gallery, and three lucky people will walk away with a prize!

To enter to win, just send us your photo. You can e-mail it to ottawairc@state.gov, upload it to our Facebook wall, or Tweet it at us. However you want to submit, make sure you do it soon – the deadline is September 1, 2011!

This contest is open only to citizens and residents of Canada. U.S. Government employees or family members of employees are not eligible. Good luck!
