This summer the North Berrien Photography Contest invites submissions of original photographs that capture the distinctive character of our area. Eligible photographs must depict a location in North Berrien County, which includes Coloma and Watervliet cities and Hagar, Bainbridge, Coloma, and Watervliet townships. Photos should represent an aspect of North Berrien, including, but not limited to, architecture, landscapes, nature, public buildings and events, and historic locations. Submissions will be judged based on technical excellence, composition, and overall impact of the image. Winners will be selected from three age groups: Youth (Age 17 and under), Adults (18-64), and Seniors (Age 65+). Winning photographs and honorable mentions will appear in a public exhibit at the North Berrien Historical Museum, to premiere during the Tri-City Heritage Tour on Saturday, September 24, 2011.
The Photography Contest is sponsored by the North Berrien Historical Society—our goal is to add contest submissions to our collection, advancing our mission to preserve local history and culture for future generations.

The final deadline to postmark or hand-deliver submissions to the museum is Tuesday, September 6, 2011. Complete submissions will include the Entry Form, a brief photograph description, and the photo entry printed on 8 by 10 inch photo paper.
