Contests
14th Annual California Ocean and Coastal Amateur Photography Contest launches May 29, 2012!
We are joining forces with the California Coastal Commission and Fairmont Hotels of California for a second year to jointly sponsor the 14th Annual California Ocean and Coastal Amateur Photography Contest. The contest features photographs that reflect the importance that the coast and ocean has for California residents and the role that the California Coastal Commission, Natural Resources Agency, and the Ocean Protection Council have played in preserving coastal and marine resources.
Submit your photo or vote on photos by going to: www.mycoastalphoto.com
