World Camera Day Competition

World Camera Day is observed each year on June 29th. This day commemorates photographs, the camera, and their invention.

Since the 29th falls on a Monday this year we plan to celebrate the whole weekend with an online competition. Grab your camera or cameras, new or vintage, and take some pictures on June 27, 28 and 29. This is a solo project since cases of Covid-19 are still on the rise in Northwest Arkansas. Be careful in all your photographic endeavors and continue observing safe pandemic practices.

Images can be taken inside or out, with a camera of any age, during the June 27 – 29 timeframe. You then have 30 days to post your 3 best images to the online competition. Tell us what kind of camera you used when you post the image. After the submission deadline fellow PSNWA members will vote for the top image. The photographers whose image is chosen will receive a t-shirt from the PSNWA Zazzle shop and a $25 Bedford Camera and Video gift-certificate.
