Get out there and shoot some photos of your favorite neighborhood spots this weekend, or dig through your archives. Good Magazine, in partnership with Pictory Magazine, is looking for some great shots of local spots to include in their upcoming Neighborhoods Issue, such as a "bar, coffee shop, library, park, bench, record shop, water fountain—whatever it is that gives you that 'I love this neighborhood' feeling." Pictory will also include the winning shots in one of their showcases.
Here are some tips from Good's creative director on what they're looking for:
I'd love to get as intimate a picture as possible, but also something quite easy to replicate. For any retail place, I'm thinking a straight-up storefront shot...Don't be too far away or zoomed out. And probably stay away from shots looking down the street or up at something or down at something—unless that's the only way to get your favorite thing.
Submit your photo to Pictory, along with a caption, by February 24. Good luck!
