Entries are being accepted now through September 6, 2014 for the 5th
The Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge offers plenty of opportunities for bird watching, observing the great outdoors and nature photography. Bring your binoculars and ride the Tam or meander along the walking trails, cross native prairie lands and meander under the forest. Native wildlife is abundant and the photography opportunities are endless.
Photographers who enter as many categories as they can will improve their chances of winning, as some categories attract many more entries than others.
This year $100 and a ribbon will be awarded for the Best in Show photo, and $50 and ribbons will be awarded for First Place in each contest category available. Ribbons will be given for Second and Third places in each category -- Artistic, Flora and Macro, Landscape, Wildlife, and Youth.
Skip Hills, owner of Hill’s Photography of Texas, Trey Neal, Texas professional photographer, and Rick Cantu, Assistant Manager at Hagerman have been selected as Judges for this year's competition . The panel of judges will not know the identity of anyone submitting photos until after the judging is complete.
Entries may be mailed to the refuge or handed in at the Visitor Center. Contest rules, entry details and entry form are posted at http://www.friendsofhagerman.com/PhotoClub.
