Rick,

That sounds like an excellent idea! There are many very talented FTers!

The only thing I can think of would be the prizes. If they are only from the HOM and fairly low in value, it would limit the word getting out onto the 'net and we'd have a rash of newbies (non flyers) joining just to enter the photo contest.

This would keep the focus on the quality of the photos and not winning the prize.
