When we have the next photo contest there will be a web page you can upload your photos to. You don't need to be a photographer to submit a photo. Thank you!

I wonder if you might consider a MG photo data base. I am a MG in San Diego and am producing videos for the MG. It would be great to have license free photos that are UCCE approved to use that Mg's all over the state could utilize and contribute to. Maybe something like this already exists but I can find anything anywhere. thanks so much, Coko Brown

I’m maybe did not understand what photo content the judges want because I am spectacularly unimpressed. I really was hoping that the photos I submitted reflected our growing food in Tahoe community education(in a very unrecognized low income full time resident population). I have no issue with the rather run of the mill chosen top three photos but... it’s a photography contest and they, in my opinion, did not seem to show any particular photography skill or wow factor.

Hi Coko! UC ANR has a photo repository that is available in your volunteer portal account: https://ucanr.edu/portal/ (Your login is the same as for your volunteer VMS profile.) We are also working on a photo library that has professional images that can be downloaded by anyone for use system-wide.
