Post up to three photos taken in the Pacific Northwest between Sept 22, 2013 and Dec. 21, 2013 in this thread to enter our Fall PNWNP Seasonal Photo Contest!!

The winning photo will be displayed on our splash page this winter, and be added to our forum banner for one year.

Please keep in mind these guidelines:

-Any NPN member may enter up to three images.

-The image must be taken in the Pacific Northwest ("anything you can see from Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia") in the current season (for example, see the dates above for the current contest).

-Submitted images must follow the NPN Posting Guidelines and fit within one of the Gallery Guidelines for the Avian, Environmental Photojournalism, Flora, Landscape, Macro/Close-up, Man & Nature, Photo Art, and Wildlife Galleries.

-One winning image and two honorable mentions will be chosen by the PNWNP moderators, and thus PNWNP moderators are not allowed to enter images.

-The winning image will be featured on the Cover Shot for the following season and in the forum banner for four seasons.

Good luck, and good shooting!
