America – What does it mean to you?
Asked, “What does the United States of America mean to you,” how would you respond with photographs? Certainly no one photograph, even though it could speak a thousand words, will likely suffice.
This juried, world-wide competition is intended to present the many and diverse views of what America means to its citizens, visitors, and people who have never been to the U.S. but have opinions shaped by what they see, hear from others, and read.
We welcome images that present America’s bountiful benefits and attractions as well as its controversies and challenges.
