It is time again for the National Geographic and Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest.  Last year’s winner was the perfect combination of perfect timing, a dedicated photographer, photographic skill and just a dash of luck.  There are six categories in which you can submit photos for this year’s contest; Animals/Wildlife, Nature/Weather, Travel/Cultures, Family/Community, Arts/Music, and Action/Energy.  If you are ambitious you can even enter one photo per theme.  All the nitty gritty details and contest rules can be found here.

The judge in this year’s contest is National Geographic photographer, Jim Richardson.  His work has been featured in 45 National Geographic stories as well as TIME, Life, the New  York Times and many more.  You can check out a gallery of Jim Richardson’s photography for inspiration and get you set for winning one of the first place prizes and hopefully the grand prize.   The 6 first place winners, one in each category, will get a prize package made up of several Energizer battery requiring gadgets.  For the lucky grand prize winner they get a National Geographic vacation package for two to their choice of Alaska, Bhutan, or Morocco.  (I’ll take Bhutan)
