We know we've been mean.
In the history of our photo contests, we've included such dastardly abstract categories as "middle," "awkward," "metamorphosis," and "waste." Yeah, we're jerks. However, our hearts have temporarily thawed. So ...
This time, it's easy. Our categories for the fall 2008 contest are "BABIES" and "PETS."
But our kindness will be short-lived, as the deadline for submissions is November 19. Winners will be published in our December 3 issue.
Fair warning: To make up for this spell of uncharacteristic charity, the categories for the next contest are going to be "ethos," "riboflavin," and "Kierkegaard."

5) Photographers are limited to two entries.
