Point Reyes 50th Anniversary Photo Contest On September 13, 1962, President Kennedy signed the Point Reyes National Seashore Authorization Act, realizing the dream of a national seashore at Point Reyes. To commemorate our 50th anniversary, Point Reyes National Seashore sponsored a photo contest. From the 308th step at the historic lighthouse to high up on Mt. Vision's bishop pine covered ridge, share your favorite memories of this natural sanctuary. Park visitors are invited to submit their photos in three categories: flora and fauna, landscapes, and people in the seashore. The competition was open to all park visitors. Submissions were accepted between August 1, 2012, and August 27, 2012. The winners were announced in September to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the park. Rules and Regulations Term: Who may enter: Photos must be taken within the Point Reyes National Seashore boundaries. The photos must demonstrate good stewardship of the seashore and depict approved visitor use and park resource protection. All photos must be the original work of the contestant.
