Last month, Washingtonian.com launched this new travel blog to give Washington jet-setters a one-click resource for the latest travel news, tips, getaway deals, and more. In the spirit of vacations and in celebration of this blog, we're hosting a new photo contest: Send us your best travel photos.
The sky’s the limit in terms of subjects—a Hawaiian sunset, Mexican ruins, Tibetan mountains. Just make sure you send your most creative images. While snapshots of your smiling kids at the beach are fine, what we really want to see are artfully composed photographs that capture the spirit of a far-off place. Get creative—surprise us.
Here’s how the contest works: Send submissions by noon on Friday, March 19, and our judges will pick the best to advance to the reader-voting round. Then we’ll open it up to you to select a favorite. The winner will be published in the May issue of The Washingtonian.
Photos—one per e-mail—should be sent to photocontest@washingtonian.com. Be sure to include the photographer’s name, phone number, e-mail address, and place of residence, along with a sentence or two about the photo and where it was taken and explaining why it fits the theme. Photos should be 300 dpi and at least four by six inches. And remember, the photographer must be from the Washington area, which includes the Maryland and Virginia suburbs.
Happy trails, and good luck!
