In January, our surroundings are bare and Spartan. The vibrant colors of spring are still buried under snow or forming deep within seeds, pods and bulbs.
However, beauty exists in stark contrast. Inland 360s black-and-white photo contest will highlight that fact.
Were asking readers to share their best black-and-white photo. Winners will receive two movie tickets to area theaters.
As for subject matter, its wide open. Nature, people, abstract designs and photos creatively manipulated by technology are all fair game. Winners will be announced in the Feb. 7 edition of Inland 360.
Here are the rules:
Only one submission per person.
Entries must be the original work of the photographer.
Entries should be emailed to contests@inland360.com and include the photographers full name, address and city.
Entries are due by 5 p.m. Jan. 27.
Photos must be taken between now and the contest deadline.
Print photos will not be accepted.
