Two SCCA Rally Photography Competitions Accepting Submissions

TOPEKA, Kan. (Sept. 10, 2009) – Amateur and professional photographers alike are encouraged to enter their best work for the All in a Day’s Drive SCCA RoadRally photo contest and the Dirty Pictures SCCA RallyCross photo contest. To help promote SCCA Rally and to foster a deeper appreciation for the cars, people, settings and scenes that compose it, the All in a Day’s Drive RoadRally photo contest has returned in 2009. A similar competition, the Dirty Pictures photo contest, has also been introduced for RallyCross photography. For each contest, photographers may submit up to five photos that best capture the essence of RoadRally or RallyCross. Photographs must be from a RoadRally or RallyCross event within the last three years and be in a .jpg, .jpeg or .gif format. Photos should not exceed 1MB in size and can be emailed, along with an entry form, to either roadrally@scca.com or rallycross@scca.com. Photos for each contest are currently being accepted through November 3. A panel of judges, including professional photographers, journalists and publishers with expertise in motorsports, will select a first, second and third-place winner for each contest. Winners will be announced at the 2010 SCCA National Convention in Las Vegas with a media presentation of the selected photographs. For the All in a Day’s Drive contest, the top three will each receive a one-year SCCA membership or membership renewal, a one-year subscription to RACER Magazine and their photos published in SportsCar Magazine. The first-place finisher in the Dirty Pictures contest will receive $75, with $50 going to second place and $25 to third. Each of the top three will also receive a one-year SCCA membership or membership renewal, a one-year subscription to RACER Magazine and their photos published in SportsCar Magazine. There is a potential for honorable mention selections in both competitions. For full contest rules and an entry form, visit www.scca.com/rally and select “Forms” from the left-side menu.
