Photography contest looks for images of farming

Friday, May 9, 2014

by SUSAN MANN

The Farm & Food Care Foundation has launched a national photography contest for people to capture images of farming in six different categories.

The contest features a total of more than $4,000 in cash prizes including in each of the six categories - $400 for the first prize, $200 for the second prize and $100 for the third prize. There will also be a $400 award to the judges’ overall favourite picked from all the category winners.

Farm & Food Care Ontario communications intern Resi Walt says people don’t have to be farmers to enter the contest. But entrants must be Canadian residents and the photos must be taken in Canada.

The winning photos will be used by the foundation in the 2014 edition of The Real Dirt on Farming, a publication that answers consumers’ common questions about Canadian food and farming practices. The booklet will be released soon, the foundation’s May 6 press release says.

The foundation is a national charity working to ensure public trust and confidence in Canadian food and farming.

Photos submitted to the contest may also be used elsewhere by Farm & Food Care. Non-winning entries used in the booklet will get $50 per photo.

The categories are:

  • Canadian farm scenes that capture the beauty of the rural landscape.
  • Farm faces, including unique family photos, farmers at work or farm friends.
  • All about animals, featuring animals in their barns or in fields.
  • Farm innovation that depicts technology at work on farms.
  • Crazy about crops that shows plants growing in fields or greenhouses.
  • Farm fun showing people having fun while farming.

Entries are due by the end of the day on June 30.

A national panel of judges will select the winners. BF
