Fish and Game kids fishing photo contest ends Tuesday

MAT-SU — Tuesday is the deadline to enter the Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s annual photo contest. Winners in the kids fishing photo contest will be featured in the 2014 sport fishing regulation publication.

To be considered for the cover, the primary person in the photo must be under the age of 18 when the photo was taken and the photo must have been taken in Alaska.

Entries must be received by or emailed no later than 5 p.m., Oct. 1 to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. A signed photo/model release, available online at the link listed below, from a parent or legal guardian is required for entries to be published.

Please submit photos in digital format via email, or mail or hand-deliver 5-by-7 prints at the Fish and Game office at 333 Raspberry Road, Anchorage. Please do not send slides.

In the subject line of the email, include the home community of the person(s) pictured and the location where the photo was taken. Electronic photos must have a high pixel to inch ratio — a minimum of 600 pixels/inch. (If you do not know the ratio of the photo, blow the photo up to 8-by-10. If the photo is still clear and crisp at this size, it can be considered for the cover.) Do not send electronic files larger than 10 megabytes. Entries are limited to three per person.
