2009 Photo Contest 

Annual Photo Contest

This year NPSO will again host a photo contest in order to select images for the 2009 Oregon Native Plant Appreciation Week poster. Native Plant Appreciation Week is co-sponsored by NPSO and the Bureau of Land Management.

The contest is open to everyone. Photos should showcase an Oregon plant community or a portrait of an Oregon native plant. Photos may have been taken at any time.

How to take part:

  • Entries must be submitted online on the NPSO Photo Gallery, in the album titled "2009 NPAW Photo Contest."
  • Two entries maximum per person.
  • Entry deadline is January 10, 2009.
  • Photos will be rated on artistic presentation, appropriateness to the theme, and technical excellence.
  • When submitting images to the gallery, please fill in the Caption field with as much information as you can provide about the photo, e.g.:
    • Photographer name
    • Species or other description
    • Family
    • Common name
    • Location
    • Date
    • The sample image in the album shows what is wanted.
  • Please give each photo a descriptive name before uploading.

For each photo submitted, send an email to Judi Sanders, giving the information in the Caption field, as well as the name of the photo as it it listed in the album. Please also include your email address, home address, and phone number.

Initial judging will be from preview-size digital images, but the winning photographer(s) must provide a high-resolution image (at least 300 dpi) and must allow NPSO to reproduce the image free of charge for our poster, website, and related publicity material. Questions can be emailed to Judi Sanders.
