OKLAHOMA NATIVE PLANT SOCIETY: 2009 PHOTO CONTEST
This contest is open to the public. All photos entered become the property
of ONPS, to be used for displays or educational purposes. ONPS will
credit photographers. All entries accepted for judging will be displayed.
Categories:
- The 2009 Special category is Ferns.
- The 2010 Special category will be Fruits.
In each category photographers can enter their photos as "First Time Submission" in that category, or a "Regular" submission. This will give a total of six awards in each category. Awards are: first, $50.00; second, $25.00; third, $15.00. Honorable mentions will be awarded as the judges determine. A special prize of $75 may be awarded for the best photo from a "botanical" point of view at the judges’ discretion. All entries are automatically considered for these special awards. Winners will be announced in the summer issue of The Gaillardia, the ONPS quarterly newsletter. Awards will be presented at the Wildflower Workshop in May, 2009. Prizes will be mailed to those who cannot be present.
