Still Time to
Enter the DCP Photo Contest
Calling all amateur photographers! There are still a few more weeks to
submit photos for the 2015 Darke County Park District Photo Contest.
Get outside and capture the beauty of YOUR Darke County Parks! The
winning photos submitted will be used to create a 2016 calendar.
There are twelve Darke County Parks and twelve months in the year. The
goal is to feature a different park each month highlighting the
particular season. The rules are as follows. Photos must be taken in
one of the Park District’s twelve park areas during 2014 or 2015 and
submitted by amateur photographers only. (Amateur is defined as someone
who does not earn more than half of their income through photography.)
Scenery photos are preferred, but photos of people using the parks may
be submitted. (A model release form must be signed if there are
recognizable people featured in the photo.) Photos must be in a
horizontal orientation only and must be submitted digitally (6
megapixel minimum.) No more than five entries can be submitted per
photographer per month. Entrants under 18 years old require a signature
from their parent or guardian. All photos submitted become the property
of the Darke County Park District who retains the right to use all
submitted photos in any advertising and or promotion it deems suitable.
Entries will be evaluated based on appeal, content, and photographic
skill, and the judges’ decision will be final. Credit will be given to
the winning photographer in the 2016 Darke County Park District
Calendar. The deadline for submissions is November 1, 2015. Please
submit photos to Naturalist, Hannah Linebaugh at
hlinebaugh@darkecountyparks.org; include the date and location where
the photo was taken and the photographer’s name. For any questions
about the 2015 Darke County Parks Photo Contest, please contact Hannah
Linebaugh at the above email or by calling the Nature Center at (937)
548-0165.
