Rosemount Photo Contest is Back

The Rosemount Area Arts Countil and Rosemount Parks and Recreation are teaming up to offer the second annual Rosemount Photo Contest.

There are four categories:

• Nature (landscape, wildlife, floral)
• Lifestyle (people, activities, city scenes)
• Enhanced or altered (significantly, with software)
• Youth (17-under)

Photos can be of anything in or related to Rosemount. Contest organizers are looking for photos from all seasons.

Photos should be dropped off at the Rosemount Parks & Recreation Office—13885 South Robert Trail, on the lower level—between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Contest rules:

• Awards will be given for first, second and third place and honorable mention in each category.
• Photos should be submitted as an 8x10, mounted on foam board, along with a digital image (JPG or PDF) on a flash drive or disc, 300 dpi resolution.
• Photo backs should be labeled with the following information: Name, address, contact number, category, location and date the photo was taken, and the names of people in the photo.
• Contest is open to all Rosemount-area residents, and each participant can enter up to three photos.
• Photos will be displayed and judged—by experienced photographers—during Leprechaun Days. Previously entered photos are not eligible.
• Submission deadline is 4:30 p.m. Thursday, July 12.
