New Theme Announced for #LoveBeaufortCounty Photo Contest: Gardens, Gates and Blooms
The first week of Spring is an occasion
reflected in the #LoveBeaufortCounty photo contest’s new theme: “Gardens,
Gates and Blooms,” which is open for submissions Monday, March 20, the first
day of Spring, through Monday, April 10.
The contest is based on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and is open to residents and
visitors of Beaufort County.
“Our new photo contest allows
any resident with a camera or smartphone to participate,” said Beaufort County
Communications Coordinator Carizma Brown. “Our goal is to host a welcoming
contest that allows us to showcase the beauty and history of our County from
diverse perspectives.”
The contest will run
continuously throughout the year. The three-step process can be done on a
computer or smartphone:
- Take a photo that illustrates
the unique beauty of Beaufort County’s sceneries. Use the current theme.
- Like or follow Beaufort County
on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.
- Upload your photo on Instagram,
Twitter or Facebook using the hashtag #LoveBeaufortCounty.
A panel of County staff will
rank the photos. The highest ranked photos will be featured on the County’s
Instagram page and website.
Throughout the year, there will
be specific themes and categories that participants should follow.
Participants can enter photos
at any time during each theme’s submission period. Individuals can also submit
photos of their choice during periods in which there is no theme using the three-step
process.

#LoveBeaufortCounty photo contest, like or follow Beaufort County on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.
