How to enter a photo in a photo contest
How I did it: I recently started playing around with Google Earth and discovered all of the photos on it from Panoramio. I decided I'd submit some photos from the places I've been recently. It turns out they're running monthly contests, so I submitted one of my recent "artsy" panorama photos.
Lessons & tips: Just do it!

I added this photo of my cat into a photography contest and out of nowwhere its now published in two worldwide national photography books and I receieved a reward naming me one of the amature photographers of the year. It was close to the 1st photo I’ve ever really “taken” and all the hype came as a big surprise. So its so worth it!
I entered this photo in the Nature category. I’m marking this as done!
I’m thinking this might be a good photo for the local, nature photo contest that is held every year. This is a ghost crab I saw walking on the beach one evening.
My employer has a photo contest every year. About 52-60 photos are chosen to go in the weekly calendar that is distributed to all employees.
I was NOT chosen my first year (deep depression!). But the past 2 years, I was. It was thrilling. (Ok, maybe I’m a little geeky to get so excited about it. But it is nice to be recognized and get a little exposure for something you put your heart and soul into.)
