The Albany Visitors Association (AVA) is proud to sponsor the 6th Annual Albany Photography Contest. The purpose of this contest is to find images suitable for use in the coming year’s marketing program for Albany and Linn County.

The contest is open to photographers of all skill levels. First through third place ribbons will be given to winners in each of six categories plus overall winners Champion and Reserve Champion. There will also be a ribbon awarded for Peoples’ Choice, with a winner voted for by the general public. Prizes will be awarded to Champion, Reserve and People’s Choice winners.

The cost is $2.00 per photo entered. Categories for the contest include: Scenic, Landmarks, Events, Life in our Community, Open, and Digitally Manipulated.

There is a separate category open to AVA Board and Staff. They may enter photos in the same theme categories as shown above, however, their works will not be eligible for prizes or awards, but will compete for ribbons only and may be used in the marketing program.

Photos will be displayed in a show on Flicker (accessible from AVA website) for the month of March. Selected photos may be used for promotional purposes to promote tourism in Albany, Linn County and the region.

Deadline for submission is 5:00 pm Friday, February 22th, 2013. For further information, contest rules and entry forms contact the Albany Visitors Association. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE 2013 PHOTO & VIDEO CONTEST PACKET
