The last Sunday in October is also the last day photographers can enter the Kruckeberg Botanic Garden Photo Contest. Sponsored jointly by the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council and the KBG Foundation, the contest is the first project the two groups have collaborated on.

Full contest rules here. Enter up to five photos taken in the Garden at any time this year or previously -- by midnight, Oct. 27 to Eric Doit. 

Winning photos will be displayed at Shoreline City Hall, Oct. 30 through Jan. 24 and then at the Garden. They will also be considered for inclusion in a 2014 calendar to go on sale in late November.

KBG Executive Director Brianne Zorn gave photographers an extra reason to come to the Garden saying, "People are just amazed when they see our newest addition, a four-ton, thousand year old redwood sculpture. We are looking for some real good shots of this work of art that is also a playground piece for children or even adults who like to climb and explore."
