June Photo Contest

Until I get permission from Cal-Trans to post the photos I want of Pitkins (it is in process), I thought I’d issue a reminder that the Summer contest for the bigsurkate header photograph is approaching.

The “theme” is again quite broad – “Summer.” The photograph must have been taken in Big Sur, from Mal Paso Creek to San Carpoforo. Summer can mean many things, including tourists, traffic jams, fire, lazy afternoons, jammed up tourist venues, and, of course, coastal fog. Only landscape format (horizontal) will be accepted, and remember, the final, winning photograph will be cropped to fit the header space provided, so keep that in mind when shooting, or submitting your photograph.

Photos can be submitted to kwnovoa@mac.com in jpg format from now until June 10th. No photographs will be accepted after midnight, PDT on June 10th. The winning photograph will be posted to the header on or about June 21st, the summer solstice.

The panel of judges will narrow the field down to approximately 10-12 photographs, and then readers will have a chance to vote for their favorite, as last time. Have fun, and let’s see what you got!
