Here's a great scholarship for photography lovers!

MyParkPhotos.com, a website devoted to public parks and other natural spaces, is holding a competition to award tuition scholarships up to $500.

The scholarship competition runs from August 1, 2007 to July 31, 2008.  A panel of judges will select the winner during August from the prior contest year's registered photographs.

Each student participant must write at least one 250 word minimum article on a public property and register a minimum of three photographs pertaining to the subject of the article and the property.  One article per property maximum. Students may write additional articles for the scholarship contest on various properties.

Each article and related three photographs (if more than three photographs are registered for the property for the year's competition, then the "best three" are selected) are judged as one body of work with points given to the photographs according to Focus, Composition, Lighting, Technical Superiority, Impact, Creativity, and Storytelling, and the article will receive points according to grammar and storytelling in conjunction with the photographs.
