Students, Get Published! Teachers, Showcase Your Lesson Plans! Portraits of Learning 2007

Technology & Learning's Digital Photo Contest for Kids
Sponsored by Adobe Digital Kids Club

What:
Technology & Learning invites K-12 students to participate in the sixth annual digital photography contest. The competition, open to all K-12 students, challenges you to capture—and share—your unique vision of the world in a "Digital Diary—Through My Lens." If you have an artistic side, you also have the option to digitally enhance your photos with your favorite imaging software. The best digitally enhanced photo wins a special prize from Adobe. Other prizes include a digital camera, Adobe Photoshop Elements, and more!

How:
Enter the best possible photo. Your photo may be submitted "as is" or you can manipulate it using photo editing software. If you do choose to manipulate your photo digitally, submit both the original and the manipulated photo so we can compare. .

Write:
* A short description of no more than fifty words about how your photograph reflects your point of view.
* (For manipulated photos only) A description of what kind of software you used and how you manipulated your photo. For tips and help on photo manipulation - see "Photo Tips and Guidelines".

Examples:
