As with other scenic locations, Whidbey and Camano islands don’t lack photo possibilities.

Nor do the islands lack photographers enamored with capturing such scenes.

The Whidbey Camano Land Trust is offering another opportunity for photographers to share their best work in their second annual photo contest.

A panel will select the top 13 submissions, among others, to be presented in the 2016 land trust calendar.

Approximately 300 photos were submitted from about 80 individuals for consideration for the 2015 calendar.

“Just when you do anything the first year, you learn how to do it better,” said Janelle Castro, communications and outreach manager for the land trust. “I am really trying to emphasize to people to follow the photo requirements. That’s very important.”

Among the guidelines, each photographer is asked to send no more than five images, which must be horizontally shaped and a large enough file size to allow the photo to be enlarged.

Photographs must be taken outdoors on Whidbey or Camano islands, but not necessarily on land trust properties, and should reflect the sort of unique features on the islands the land trust works to protect, Castro said.

The land trust’s mission is “to actively involve the community in protecting, restoring and appreciating the important natural habitats and resource lands that support the diversity of life on our islands and in the waters of Puget Sound.”

Capturing such images for the calendar is the goal and not necessarily with just scenic landscapes.

“I would love to have more pictures with people in them, of people recreating, of people farming, people on their land,” Castro said.

Deadline for entries is May 1.

Photos may be sent electronically to landtrustphotocontest@gmail.com
