QUESTIONS & ANSWERS:
What kinds of photos?
Anything on a nature or wildlife theme is OK for this contest.
Photos of wild animals are great, but let your imagination go wild! Your
photo could be of a bird at a feeder, a butterfly in your backyard, a
close-up shot of an interesting bug or a unique flower.
Can I get my photo back?
We're sorry that we cannot return the photos you submit. It's a good idea
to make a copy of a really special photo before sending it!
What about digital photographs?
Please make a photo print of your shot and mail it to us, along with your
signed entry form. If yours is selected, we'll get in touch with you about
e-mailing us the digital photo.
Where are the rules and entry form?
Follow this link to the official
rules & entry form. Remember to have Mom or Dad read them and
give you permission to enter, first!
What if I win?
The Ranger Rick staff will contact you. Please be prepared to send us the original negative (or digital image) so that we can feature your winning photo in an upcoming issue of Ranger Rick magazine!
Good luck—and have fun! |
