All winning photos will be included in a special publication to be printed and presented for purchase soon after announcing winners.

The category-winning photos will also be publicized and featured at local Apopka businesses for public viewing and purchase.

So, what makes a photograph winner? Technical quality, clarity and composition are all important, but so is a flair for the unexpected and the ability to capture a picture-perfect moment.

Please submit photos in jpeg format no more than 5mb each, with photo title(s).
