It’s been a busy year here at The District and it’s about time to give some thanks to you, our readers.

To celebrate our upcoming one year anniversary, we’re launching a contest to put one of your photos on the cover of our Anniversary Issue. We’re looking for anything–any shot of the people, places, things, buildings, animals and so on that make Long Beach great.

To enter, simply submit your favorite photos to our Flickr pool. Photos should be around 3000 x 3600px and be tagged with “cover-contest.” The deadline is March 31st.

Photos will be judged by District staff. And employees, spouses, etc. of The District won’t be eligible. But tell your friends!

UPDATE: This probably goes without saying, but we didn’t think of it at first so it’s probably important to note: You must own the copyright to photos entered in the contest and be willing to let us print them. Furthermore, if your photo is of a person or multiple people you must have or be able to obtain model-releases.
