SCRATCHPAD Annual photo contest opens Friday By LUCY KLEINER COAST WEEKEND EDITOR Between the massive waves, lush forests and starry (and stormy) skies, our coast is a beautiful place to be all year long. Coast Weekend’s 2019 Photo Contest is a chance to showcase that wonder, as seen from your eyes. The annual contest opens Friday, Nov. 15, and closes Sunday, Dec. 15. Submit photos that capture scenes or slices of life from this year on the North Coasts of Ore- gon and Southwest Washington, cover- ing the areas between Rockaway Beach to Ocean Park. All submissions must include details about where and when the photo was taken and who is in the photo, if applicable. The top 10 photos will appear in the Jan. 2, 2020, issue of Coast Weekend. The top 25 photos will run on our website. The contest is a great way to refl ect on the beauty of the year and show off the area many of us call home. Judges from The Astorian will decide fi rst through third place awards for photo- graphs submitted. The public can vote online for a People’s Choice Award winner starting Monday, Dec. 16, and closing Sunday, Dec. 23. The yearly contest draws hundreds of submissions, and we are excited to continue harnessing that creative competition. Submit photos online at Coast Week- end’s website, coastweekend.com, under the “Photo Contest” tab. All of us here at The Astorian are eager to see your photos. We can’t wait to look back on 2019 through your eyes! “Our very first brand new mattress” Meghann Hanour Last year, Meghann Hanour’s ‘Valentine and Pearl,’ took fi rst place in the Coast Weekend Photo Contest. The photo captured Hanour’s daughter and a friend sharing an authentic moment in Cannon Beach.
