You’ve got no excuse this time. I try to make most of the Contest Corner Challenges accessible to as many people as possible, but obviously, certain geographical limitations do come into play once and a while. This time, though, you’ve got no excuse. We all live somewhere. Even better, I know you all have access to the internet, so I’m guessing not one of you lives in some remote tree fort or anything. I lived in the middle of no where for a year, and even then, I wouldn’t be able to wiggle out of this one. Your task? Take a photograph of your home town. It doesn’t matter if you live in a huge metropolis like New York or Singapore, or you live in a small town or in the middle of no where (like Fort Simpson in the Northwest Territories of Canada), you can do this one.

Contest Corner Challenge #58: My Home Town challenges you to get out into the place that you live, and photograph something that captures the essence of your home town. It could be city hall, or the big stadium downtown, a statue, or even that cool restaurant on Main street. Go out and take a photograph of your “home town” and title your photograph in this format: Town/City, State/Province, Country (i.e. Barrie, Ontario, Canada). Make sure to read the Contest Corner Challenge Rules & Regulations before submitting an entry, though.

I’m looking forward to seeing what all of your home town’s look like!
