Earth Day Photo Contest for Students
The Student Blog is sponsoring an Earth Day http://ww2.earthday.net/earthday2010 photography contest. First, second, and third place winners will receive gift cards to Politics & Prose!
All students are welcome to submit their best photograph that shows what Earth Day means to them. That could be almost anything – nature, people, food, or even pollution – but the photo must convey a strong environmental theme. The deadline for entries is Sunday, April 25.
Members of the Student Blog team will judge photos on composition, content, and environmental theme. Winners will be announced and their photos published on the Murch Web site and in the next edition of Murch Mustang Express. All entries will be featured in a gallery on the Web site as well, but the winners will be featured on the Home page.
Please, digital images only – this is Earth Day, after all, so let’s avoid paper and chemicals! (If you have to borrow your parents’ camera, be sure to get their permission first.)
Contest Rules:
Entries due by Sunday, April 25.
One photo per student.

Photos may be in color or black and white.
Submit digital images via email [mikeheffner@mac.com].
Please include the student’s name, parent contact information, and teacher.
