---------------------------------------------------------------- January 2010 Congratulations National Historic Landmark Photo Contest Winners In 2009, we celebrated the tenth anniversary of the National Historic Landmark Photo Contest. The past decade has brought us over 1,000 incredible images from almost every state in the union. These images were submitted by people from all walks of life who care for and cherish these special places that represent our American story. Many images were submitted by owners or caretakers. Many others were submitted by visitors, both from the United States and abroad. We originally titled the contest, “Imaging Our National Heritage” to encourage people to use their cameras to capture the meaning of their National Historic Landmark in a photo. We hope these images inspire you to visit our nation’s National Historic Landmarks, seek out the stories that have formed our American history, and create your own image. On this, our 10th anniversary, we welcomed almost 200 outstanding images, many picturing landmarks that have not previously been part of the contest. National Park Service employees nationwide voted to select the winning images contained in this announcement. All of the winning images will be featured in our annual planner, available in January. This year’s planner cover (above) features a sampling of the winning images from our ten year history while the pages within highlight the winning images from the 2009 Photo Contest. Please click the links on the left to view the winning images and enjoy a journey through the history and diversity of our great nation. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The 2010 National Historic Landmark Photo Contest Event Planner is available for purchase from the Government Printing Office.
