National Park Foundation and Olympus Launch 2010 Amateur Photo Contest
The National Park Foundation and Olympus have launched the 2010 Share the Experience photo contest. The annual contest runs now through December 31, 2010. The grand prize winner's photo will be featured on an America the Beautiful Federal Recreation Lands Pass. All winners will also receive prizes from Olympus.
"We always tell people in parks to take only pictures and leave only footprints," said Neil Mulholland, President and CEO of the National Park Foundation. "Our annual photo contest is a great reason to get outside and help capture the incredible spaces and places preserved in our national parks."
Share the Experience is the official photo contest of America's national parks and federal recreation lands. You can find information about how to enter at sharetheexperience.org.

Wild Wonders of Europe Photography Project Launches
The Wild Wonders of Europe has launched. It is an online photography project trying to generate interest in Europe's wildlife.
"Most of us Europeans today know more about nature in Africa or North America, than we know about Europe. How many Swedes know anything about nature in Bulgaria? How many Irish know anything about nature in Belarus? Or vice versa! This is all part of a natural heritage that we share. But how are you supposed to care about something that you have never even seen or heard about?" says Staffan Widstrand, photographer and writer from Sweden, Managing Director of Wild Wonders of Europe.
The launch of the website is also the start of the countdown to the Great Quest in which 50 of Europe's leading nature photographers will travel on more than 90 assignments to every country in Europe. The Great Quest begins in May, 2008.
