THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED–WINNER ANNOUNCED HERE. The final entry is #52, Our Lincoln Log. I’m not sure how to “close” a Mr. Linky! The winner will be announced after Angie and Amy have had a chance to choose.
[Edited to add: Limit of 2 entries per person (I meant to make it one, but forgot to include it. Since there are people who have already submitted two, we’ll leave it at that.) Giveaway open to U.S. residents only.]
Energizer and National Geographic are currently extending an invitation for any level of photographer to enter their most inspiring photographs for a chance to have the winning photo published in a special Energizer advertising section in the December 2009 issue of National Geographic magazine, and win the ultimate grand prize: A 10-day National Geographic Expeditions trip for two to the Galapagos Islands. Acclaimed photographer Jim Richardson will be judging the contest.
In honor of this contest, I am hosting a photo contest giveaway sponsored by Energizer and National Geographic. The winner will receive a one-year subscription to National Geographic magazine and a sample of Energizer lithium batteries.
[I just want to clarify here that there are 2 separate contests: the official one with the Galapagos Islands giveaway, and the photo contest giveaway here with the National Geographic subscription and Energizer lithium battery sample.]
For my contest, enter a photo of your own from one of the National Geographic contest categories:
- Animals/Wildlife
- Nature
- People/Cultures
- Travel
- Weather
- Inspiration/Keep Going (This is the place for those photos that capture perseverance, boundless energy, and that never-quit spirit that inspires us all to keep going.)
Use the Mr. Linky below to link to your contest entry, which can be posted on your blog (old or new post) or linked directly from its Flickr page (please be sure to link to your individual blog post or Flickr photo and not your blog’s URL or entire Flickr photostream).
Judges are the fabulous iHeartFaces gals: Amy and Angie!
Contest ends Monday night, June 29, at midnight EST. Good luck and SHOW US YOUR PHOTOS!
This photo unit is a fun way to check out who enters the big contest and makes it easy to vote for your favorite photos. The widget underneath it is for entering the official Energizer/National Geographic contest. Use the Mr. Linky at the bottom to enter my contest.
I have just added a link to a photo that my husband shot, so that is the entry for Rick Fendick. I will add my entry in a few minutes.

Now I have added a link to my own photograph in the Nature category. Thank you for allowing me to place an entry for Rick on my blog as he doesn’s have time for a blog of his own!

I just posted this on the mom’s group in Atlanta that I belong to. There are some seriously talented photographers on there so hopefully a few of them will enter.
Just entered one I took in Marbella, Spain … seriously beautiful sunsets there! Found this from Stacie who linked it to our Atlanta Mom’s group…

Hi. It wasn’t clear to me whether we could enter a picture for different catagories, so I entered two, one for nature, and one for wildlife. Let me know if that is not ok! Fun contest, thanks!

Awwww, now I’m very sad 🙁
I thought it was only 1 entry (because I was smart enough to ak first) and now also find out that I can’t be in contest because I’m in Canada!
Oh well, it was nice having people stop by my blog to view the photos I entered for Rick and I.

Just submitted my entries, in the nick of time! So glad you are hosting this contest–I had heard about the National Geographic Contest awhile ago and completely forgot about it! Now to get the rest of my entries together… : )
