Florida’s Port Canaveral is inviting amateur photographers, of any age, to enter a competition to mark its 65th anniversary.
Interested participants have until September 30, 2018, to submit up to three original digital photographs taken in or around Port Canaveral that illustrates an aspect of the port – scenery, cruise or cargo ships, pleasure boats, nature, port operations, wildlife, and space launches as seen from Port Canaveral.
A panel of five judges will review all photos submitted and select the top three for each of five categories.
Photo categories are Cruise, Cargo, Fishing/Boating/Recreation, Environmental, and Space.
The winning selections will be announced on November 3, and displayed at an exhibition on November 4, the 65th anniversary of the port’s dedication in 1953.
The winning selections will then be on display at various locations around the Port during the coming year.
"Turning 65 is always a momentous occasion, and the port wants to share this milestone with our community," port CEO Captain John Murray stated.
"The photo contest is a great opportunity to give talented amateur photographers a chance to capture and share their images of what makes our Port so special."
