Photographers of all ages and skill levels are invited to compete in the first Mountains to Sound Greenway Photo Contest, held in honor of the Greenway’s 20th Anniversary.

People who take extraordinary photos in the Mountains to Sound Greenway, which stretches from Seattle to Ellensburg, can upload their photos for free to win prizes at www.mtsgreenway.org.

The six categories include: nature and landscapes; working farms and forests; history, culture and architecture; outdoor recreation and people in the Greenway; feathers fur, fins and bugs; and cities and towns. The contest closes July 15.

Judges will pick the 30 best photos, which will go on display in an exhibition that will travel throughout the Greenway through 2011.

“It’s been great to see people’s take on what the Greenway means to them,” said Erin MacCoy, communications manager for Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust. “Now that the weather is improving, we are hoping people will get out in the Greenway and capture more of what makes it a special place.”
