The Albany Visitors Association is sponsoring the 17th Annual Albany Photography Contest.
The purpose of the contest is to find images suitable for use in the coming year’s marketing materials for Albany and Linn County. Photographers will get photo credit whenever possible, according to a news release.
Many of the photos will be used in advertising and the official Albany Visitor Guide that is printed each year. There are 20,000 Albany Visitor Guides printed annually; they are sent all over the world, the release states.
Images will also be used on the AVA website and social media platforms, and in print marketing.
The contest is open to photographers of all skill levels. First-, second- and third-place awards will be presented to winners in each category: Downtown, Culinary, Events, Historic Albany, Landmarks, People and Scenic. A first-place prize will also be awarded in the Youth category.
