Photo Contest

Chairperson: Kathy Coulahan

Liaison: Keith Standley Jr.

Ready, Set, Vote

If it’s November, it must be time for the annual photo contest. So refresh your memory about the categories and rules, and bring them to the meeting on Nov. 7 for all of us to admire.

Categories:

• Balloons – one or many, in the air or on the ground; inflated, deflated, any way you like them.
• People – that means pilots, crew, spectators, passengers, landowners; anyone you catch enjoying the ballooning experience.
• Clever Caption 1 (balloons  only) – here’s a chance to take what might seem like an ordinary photo and add a caption that will bring a smile.
• Clever Caption 2 (people only or people and balloons) – same premise as above; add a caption that makes us laugh. 

Rules:

• Photos must be taken by a GEBA member.
• Photos taken between November 2009 and November 2010 are eligible.
• Entries can be no larger than 5x7, with no matting, borders or frames.
• Each person may enter 2 photos per category, for a maximum of 8 photos.
• On the back of each photo, write your name and the category you’re entering.
• Captions must be attached to the photo, facing front, or digitally added to the print, so they can be read when the entries are displayed for judging.
• Entries will be displayed at the November meeting, where GEBA members will vote for their favorites. Winners will be announced at the awards dinner.
