Third Annual Photo Contest at the Seekonk Public Library

Posted

Seekonk, MA – Calling all photographers!

Are you a photographer or a nature enthusiast? Are you both?!
The Seekonk Public Library invites you to submit your digital photos of the nature in town for a photo contest hosted by the library. The project’s goal is to digitally preserve Seekonk’s natural spaces and ecology in concert with existing efforts to conserve the town’s natural beauty. Selected photos will be uploaded to a public Flickr gallery to share views of Seekonk’s nature and wildlife, creating a digital walking tour of the preserved spaces in town.

The Contest
The Seekonk Library photo contest is open to all photographers, amateur and professionals alike. Photos must be submitted electronically by using the entry form at seekonkpl.org/photo. Photos must be taken on any of Seekonk’s natural spaces that are open to the public and feature images of wildlife, plant life, natural landscapes, weather, or any other aspect of nature.
9 Finalists will receive a mounted print of their photo.
3 Winners — one for each category below — will have their photo featured prominently in the completed gallery online and receive an Amazon Gift card.
Children’s Prize Winner: $25
Teen (13-17) Prize Winner: $25
Adult Prize Winner: $50
