A major weakness of Thirty Percent Chance of Enlightenment is that it has no photos. My fault: I find it very hard to think like a writer and a photographer at the same time. As a result, the photos I shot while I was in India were all at-my-leisure shots rather than peak-moment-of-intensity shots. Tourist pictures, really, and not worth publishing.
But the monsoon is a wonderful subject for photography, and in order to remedy my own shortcomings, we’re launching the Thirty Percent Chance of Enlightenment Monsoon Photo Contest.
Here’s how it works:
Choose your best photo(s) of the Indian monsoon (up to 5 photos allowed per photographer).
Post them in the comment/response box of this website. You must include your name, the photo title, and information about where it was taken. (You can also include other descriptive or narrative information if you like.)
Closing date will be December 31st, 2010.
The contest will be judged by staff of the Champlain College Publishing Initiative, whose decision will be final.
The winning photo will be awarded a prize of $100. Second place $75. Third place $50. The best 16 photos will be included in the second edition of Thirty Percent Chance of Enlightenment. The photographers will retain all rights to their photographs.
