Update on Energizer Photo Contest

2009 Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest

M80, a Social Media Marketing & Online Publicity company contacted me on behalf of Energizer to tell you about the 2009 Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest. If I had heard of it on my own I certainly would have been telling you all about it anyway. From what I’ve read so far this sounds like an amazing contest.

How would you like to have your photography judged by world class photographer Jim Richardson of National Geographic magazine? Sounds like a chance to get your work in front of some very discerning eyes. Not only that, but your photograph could win you a National Geographic Expeditions trip for two to the Galapagos Islands and your photo published in National Geographic magazine. Talk about exposure for your art.

The categories are Animals / Wildlife, Nature, People / Cultures, Travel, Weather, and Inspiration / Keep Going®. The contest runs from April 15 – June 30, 2009. Then Judging occurs from on or about July 1, 2009 to on or about July 31, 2009. After that voting takes place from on or about August 14, 2009 to on or about September 15, 2009. I am going to enter one of my photos into this contest but I can’t decide which ones are good enough for submission. So I need a little help and as incentive I’m offering some prizes from National Geographic and Energizer Lithium Batteries.
