Submissions will be judged by an expert panel of professional photographers who will select a winner in each of the 6 categories. Winning photos will best communicate the beauty, grandeur, delight and special quality of the Upper Arkansas Valley. A People’s Choice winner will also be selected from the top 3 photos in each category. The top 3 photos in each category will be posted on the GARNA website and on GARNA’s Facebook page to facilitate the People’s Choice Award voting.
Photo subjects must be from the Upper Arkansas Valley area only – from Leadville to Canon City.
Subjects may include landscapes, wildflowers, wild animals and birds, etc.
The contest is now closed. Please keep an eye out for an opportunity to vote on a People’s Choice!
This year we are considering the following product offerings:
PLEASE NOTE: By submitting photo(s) to GARNA you hereby give permission to GARNA to utilize the image(s) to promote and/or fund raise solely for the benefit of GARNA. While not monetarily compensated, the photographer will be credited. The photographer is free to use the photo in any way where it is not in “competition” with GARNA. For example, GARNA plans to use the winning photos to make photo notecards to sell, publicize and support GARNA activities; the photographer will refrain from offering similar cards with that photo.
Many GARNA programs require a Liability Release Form be filled out each calendar year.
Your registration is secured upon receipt of payment, as long as there space is still available in a program.
