Photo Contest: Snap to It!

Sunday, June 18, 2006; Page P01

Hit us with your best shot: We're now accepting submissions for our seventh annual photo contest.

Give us the unexpected, the hilarious, the sobering, the words-can't-do-it-justice travel moment -- anything but the obvious (at right is a detail from one of last year's winners). It's not always the subject that makes a stunning photograph. Play with angles and light and serendipity, and the photos from close-in trips just may trump the exotic.
