The Wyoming Business Council’s Agribusiness Division is now accepting photos for its 3rd Annual Ag Photo Contest.
Amateurs and professionals alike may submit photos to the Agribusiness Division until Sept. 1, 2010.
Photos must be ag related and taken in Wyoming, and may be of crops; livestock and farm animals; ag recreation and activities; or scenic agriculture. Contestants may submit multiple photos to the contest.
Contest prizes include: $300 for the grand prize, $150 for 1st place adult, $75 for 2nd place adult, and $50 for 1st place youth.
"There were over 150 photos submitted for the 2009 contest from 20 different photographers," said Cindy Garretson-Weibel, Agribusiness director. "This was a dramatic increase from previous years. We were very pleased with the response and hope many more people participate this year."
To participate, photographers must return a signed application and release to the Agribusiness Division with each unmatted, unframed 8x10-inch original photograph, as well as a digital file (of at least 300 dpi in jpeg or tiff format) or a 35mm slide.
The application may be obtained online at http://wyomingbusiness.org/ag/agribusiness.aspx or by contacting Terri Barr at terri.barr@wybusiness.org or 307-777-2807.
All photos become property of the Agribusiness Division and may be used in marketing materials, publications and the AgriCulture Calendar.
