The first Mount Washington FlickR event took place last weekend on Saturday and Sunday October 3rd and 4th.  However, we would like to open up the photo contest another weekend so that we can have all submissions by Friday October 16th. 

Do a search for Mount Washington on the internet, and you are bombared with ever so slightly different shots of Pittsburgh’s beautiful skyline and three rivers, but did you know that their is more to Mount Washington?  That is why we decided on the theme “Beyond the View” for our photo walk.

Take a look at the attached pdf mtwashingtonflickr2 for more details on the event, contest and details on how to submit your photos for judging.  We plan to have a showing of the photos and contest winners for our upcoming Light Up Night Event on Friday, November 20,2009.

The walk is rain or shine and can take place day or night.  You are encouraged to shoot within the suggested boundaries and try to capture Mount Washington life.  For those who would like to talk with other photographers particpating in the walk, or have any questions, Stop by Packs and Dogs at 225 Shiloh Street around 1:00 on October 3rd.  Ask for me,  Greg Panza, MWCDC Mainstreet Manager and perhaps relax and enjoy Chilli dog, fries, and maybe one or two of over 400 craft beers.

Enjoy and email your photos to gpanza@mwcdc.org if I dont get to meet you.
