DNR Photo Contest Celebrates Historic Resources

Last updated on Thursday, March 13, 2014

(UNDATED) - Help the DNR Division of Historic Preservation & Archaeology’s photo contest celebrate its 10th birthday by entering.

The record for photo submissions is 187 photos and the division wants to break it.

The photo contest celebrates Historic Preservation Month in May.

Photographers are encouraged to take pictures of their favorite historic resource -- from buildings, to bridges, to cemeteries and landscapes. Subject matter must be 50 years old and in Indiana.

The contest does not place limitations on the condition of the historic resource. Past entries have involved subject matter with conditions ranging from pristine to undergoing demolition.
Photos can be color or black and white, must be 8 x 10 inches and matted with white mat board so final dimensions are 11 x 14 inches.

The contest deadline is April 4.

The contest is free, and photographers can submit up to three entries per person. A list of guidelines and the registration form is at dnr.IN.gov/historic/3994.htm.
