The Refuge staff is looking for photographers who are willing to donate their own Blackwater Refuge photographs for use in our photo library and for use in future Refuge brochures, magazine articles, and publications. What is most needed are good scenic shots with wildlife, as well as shots of people doing things at the Refuge.

The photographers will be given credit in the publications, and they will also have the reward of contributing to the outreach efforts at the Refuge.

The photos should be sent to Maggie Briggs at the address below. We request that the image files be saved in the TIFF file format, at 200 dpi or higher, and be sent on a CD along with your contact information. If we choose your photo or photos, we will forward a release for you to sign.

Much thanks to everyone who donates to our educational efforts at the Refuge! And the wildlife thanks you as well.

* Please note that the person submitting the photo must be the copyright owner.
