New Photo Contest Awards Hybrid SUV

The National Park Foundation and Ford Motor Company are sponsoring a photography contest that will award some extravagant prizes. The 2007 Federal Recreational Lands Share the Experience Photo Contest will give a Ford Escape Hybrid sports utility vehicle, a trip for four to any federal recreation land, a digital camera, and an all-in-one photo printer to the grand prize winner. Second, third, and fourth prizes will include cameras and travel awards, and ten honorable mention winners will receive smaller prizes. The grand-prize-winning photo will be displayed on the 2009 Federal Recreational Lands Pass.

The 2007 Share the Experience Photo Contest will be open for submissions through December 31, 2007. Legal U.S. residents at least 18 years of age can enter by submitting up to three photos taken in one of the Federal Recreation Agency Lands during 2007.

According to the Share the Experience rules, submitted photos will be judged on "creativity; photographic quality; visual appeal; appropriateness; ability to show diversity and the richness of the Federal Recreation Lands." Winners will be announced in late May 2008.

Official rules and submission instructions are available on the Share the Experience Web site.
