NEBRASKAland Photo Contest Opens
Nebraska Ag Connection - 11/07/2019

With miles of winding rivers, wide-open vistas and wildlife from border to border, Nebraska is a photographer's paradise. The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission wants to share your visions of Nebraska with us through the 2019 Nebraskaland Magazine Photo Contest. Simply enter on Instagram using the hashtag: #nebraskaland2019

Photos must have been taken in Nebraska. Photos may not have been previously submitted to (or taken on assignment for) Nebraskaland Magazine. Employees of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission and their immediate families are ineligible.

Categories include the following:

Wildlife -- wild mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods

Scenic -- in which landmarks, scenery or inanimate objects are prominent

Recreation -- people enjoying the outdoors through hunting, fishing, hiking, backpacking, skiing or other outdoor activities

Flora -- wildflowers, foliage, fruiting bodies or other parts of plants

Note: Entrants need not choose a category. Judges will categorize all entries.

Do not send: Prints, transparencies, negatives, subscription orders, checks or correspondence.

Entrants may submit as many images as they wish but may only place in one category.

Winning entries will be announced in the January issue of Nebraskaland Magazine. Select entries will be shared on the Nebraskaland Instagram and Facebook pages, as well as in the magazine.

First, second, and third place prizes will be awarded in all categories.
