BEATRICE, Neb. – Do you love National Parks? Do you have a photo or three you want to show off?
Homestead National Historical Park is pleased to announce its third annual National Parks Photo Contest. We invite everyone to share their favorite snapshots of their time visiting America’s national parks.
Selected photos will be featured in a photography exhibit at the Homestead Education Center during the months of April and May 2024. This exhibit is part of Homestead’s celebration of National Park Week from April 20 to April 28, 2024. We encourage the submission of images of national parks sites, small and large, including national scenic trails, national monuments, and national seashores.
Photographs do not need to have been taken within any specific period of time. The selected photographs will be displayed in an exhibition and must be clearly reproduced at a minimum size of 12”x18.” Photos with ratios other than 2:3 or 3:2 may be cropped for use in the exhibit.
Please email your photograph(s) to home_information@nps.gov. In the email, provide your name, the name of park depicted, and a few sentences describing the photo and your experience in the park. We will accept submission until March 10, 2024. Up to three photos are allowed per person.
Entries must be the original work of the photographer. Images containing recognizable images of individuals must have written permission from those depicted to be eligible. A photo release form is available if needed.
By submitting a photograph, you agree to the following terms:
You retain all rights to any photograph you submit. You grant Homestead National Historical Park a royalty-free, non-exclusive right, in perpetuity, to use the photograph physically and digitally in support of the park’s mission. Photos may be cropped as needed by the park. Homestead NHP will credit all photographs to the photographer when possible.
