There are three categories being judged. People pictures (human events, situations); _ pictorials (buildings, objects, details); and the Midland harbour area. There is no entry fee. A panel of three professionals will judge the submissions. This newspaper will publish the winning entries on or about Friday, Aug. 22. The competition is sponsored by the Midland Business Improvement Assoc- iation and is open to persons of all ages. The photographs will be on public display Aug. 18 to Sept. 1.
