The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency is sponsoring a “Show Us Your Best” Earth Day Photo Contest. Entries are due March 24.

Has your community organization cleaned up a stream? Have you enjoyed a day in the woods? Has a wild animal ever sparked your imagination?

If you've caught anything like those moments in a photo, share it with EPA! EPA wants to see how you would show EPA’s mission to protect human health and the environment.

Send your best photos in three categories: enjoying the environment, protecting the environment and nature and wildlife

To encourage participation and provide maximum public access, the contest will be hosted on the photo sharing site www.Flickr.com . People around the world are encouraged to enter.

Finalists will be announced on April 1 and on April 22 (Earth Day) the winners will be announced. Finalist and winning photos will be featured on EPA's website.

Full details about the contest are available online.
