All structures that are in photo entries must be at least 50 years old and located in Indiana.
The annual DNR Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology photo contest has started.
The contest is open to photographers of any age and skill level. All structures that are in photo entries must be at least 50 years old and located in Indiana. The focus of the photos does not have to be fully restored. Photos of exclusively natural elements will not be accepted for entry. Photos used for entry must have been taken within the last two years to be eligible.
There will be five categories which you can submit your entries into. The categories are color, black and white, altered, kids (under 18), and faces of architecture. The Faces of Architecture is the theme of this year’s Historic Preservation Month. For this category, you should send photos of buildings that feature gargoyles, or other designs that feature carvings of faces. Any creature real or fake will be accepted.
Each photographer can submit up to three photos along with the entry form for each one. Images should be emailed to DHPAConnect@dnr.IN.gov and must be JPEG files that are 10MB or smaller. Photographers should send only one photo and one entry form per email. For complete rules and to find the entry form visit this link and the deadline is April 4.
The contest has been held since 2005 to promote the historic resources of Indiana. You can follow the DNR on Instagram in May to see the selected winner’s photos.
