August Underwater Photo Contest Theme & Prize

 August 10, 2009 @ 06:59 AM (EST)

The theme for the inaugural month (August 2009) of our ongoing monthly underwater photo contest is Nudibranchs.

Since nudibranchs seem to be one of the favorite subjects of so many photographers, we figured that we'd kick off the series with a nudibranch theme.

Nocturnal Lights SLX 800iEntering the contest is easy.

You can add images to one of your existing galleries on DPG or create a new gallery just for your contest entries. Please simply add the tag "Nudibranch809" to your entries. The tag is easy to add to the image while uploading. The tag must be included exactly as "Nudibranch809" in order to enter.You may enter up to three images.

*** Please do not enter more than three images. Only the first three will be accepted for the contest. ***

Guidelines and a complete list of rules can be found here. Good luck!
