Somerset County residents who are amateur or professional photographers are invited to submit entries to the sixth annual “Show Us Somerset County Through Your Camera Lens” photo contest.
Cash prizes are offered in the contest, the submission deadline of which is November 30.
Photo Contest entries should reflect one of these five themes:
- Community – show us the vibrant community in your neighborhood,
- Historic Sites in Somerset County – buildings, reenactments and other areas and events of historic significance to Somerset County. For inspiration, visit http://bit.ly/HistoricSites19.
- Natural Environment – for example, wildlife, parks, lakes, rivers, golf courses, etc.
- Recreational Opportunities – Somerset County offers many venues for recreation; show us your favorite activities. For example, wellness activities (e.g. hiking, biking, etc.) or leisure activities (e.g. golfing, dog walking, gardening, arts and culture engagements, etc.)
- Creativity during COVID-19 – a miscellaneous grab bag category to showcase the creative ways people and families coped with the stresses and isolation caused by the coronavirus. Did you take up a new hobby? Develop an artistic skill? Host family fun nights?
“There are so many talented people, amateur and professional, in Somerset County that we always look forward to receiving entries for our photo contest,” Freeholder Brian G. Gallagher said in a release about the contest. “The coronavirus has made this an especially difficult and stressful year. We want to recognize the creative and generous ways that residents found to deal with COVID-19 and sheltering in place.”
