Wetlands photo contest focuses attention on art and protection----------------------------------
Outdoor enthusiasts who are photographers have nine more weeks to create and enter their best Indiana wetlands photos for the 2008 Indiana Wetlands Calendar produced by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management.
Deadline is Sept. 14 for the photo contest, which promotes the protection and preservation of Indiana wetlands.
Wetlands filter pollutants from our groundwater supply, absorb and reduce damage caused by flood waters, and provide habitat for diverse species. Humans benefit most from healthy wetlands. The Indiana Department of Environmental Management encourages preservation and protection of wetlands.
Winning photographs will be printed in the calendar, which will be published later in 2007.
Contest entry information is listed at: www.in.gov/idem/photocontest/
Need to find wetlands for your photographs? Send an e-mail request to rhedge@dnr.IN.gov to receive the publication called "Seeps, springs, marshes and lakes ... a selection of dedicated wetland nature preserves in Indiana".
