NACOGDOCHES – The submission dates for the fourth annual Nacogdoches Azalea Trail Photography Contest are just around the corner!

All entries must be received between January 15 and February 15, 2010. The photographs must include azaleas and must have been taken within Nacogdoches County. The contest is sponsored by the Daily Sentinel and judged and exhibited by the Nacogdoches Photography Association.

“For years our residents and visitors have been taking beautiful pictures of the local azaleas, and now they will have a chance to show off their skills and help promote the Nacogdoches Azalea Trail at the same time,” said Anderson Dolton, meeting & event coordinator of the Nacogdoches Convention & Visitors Bureau.

As part of their entries, photographers must also submit a bio of no more than 300 words. Each participant may enter up to three photos, and there is a $5 fee per submission. A $100 cash award will be presented to the first-place winner. The top three photos will be printed in the Daily Sentinel and all photos will be on display from March 23-April 3 at The Cole Art Center @ The Old Opera House, 329 E. Main Street.

The 2010 Nacogdoches Azalea Trail will be held March 13-April 3, featuring driving tours, an azalea symposium, a floral-design exhibit, a plant sale, and even a Little Princess Garden Party.
