Submissions must be original but can be taken by any means including film, digital camera, or phone. Photos can be of anywhere in Chester County, though you will receive brownie points for a photo taken on a TLC Preserve.
Photos will be judged in several categories by age and photographer experience: Ages 0 – 20 or Ages 21 – 99, Professional or Amateur. Top submissions will be posted to our Instagram and Facebook and will be voted on by the general public.
1st Place Prize will be announced shortly!
