Submit your best photos to DLC’s Annual Photography Contest beginning October 30 at 8 am!

Our photo contest will look a little different this year. The winning photo will be the cover of our 2024 Annual Report and used throughout 2025 in various digital and print marketing materials. The top 5 runners-up will also be used in DLC marketing materials. Landscapes, wildlife, or any other natural feature of Douglas, Elbert, or Jefferson County are eligible as subjects for the contest.

The photo contest will open for submissions on Wednesday, October 30 at 8:00 am MST, and close to new submissions on Wednesday, November 13 at 8:00 am MST. DLC Staff will review all submissions blindly (no name associated with photo) and narrow the contest down to 25 photos. The final 25 will then be posted on DLC’s Facebook page and voting will begin Monday, November 18 at 8:00 am MST. Similar to Wildlife Wednesday, the photos will be ranked by the number of “likes” or “hearts” on the image. Voting will close at 10:00 am MST on Thursday, November 21 and the winner will be announced that evening.
