If you love outdoor photography, and you've never visited any of the USA's National Parks, then there's a treasure trove of photo opportunities waiting for you.

I took the one above in Zion National Park during early November, 2006.

I haven't been to a number of National Parks because I caught on to them too late in life; but the ones I've visited have provided me with all the "photo ops" I could have hoped for. Because of various medical problems, I haven't been able to get to the better parts of a number of parks so I know there's even more to be explored, a lot more.

Now, Canon Digital Cameras is making a trip to a National Park even more inviting by giving you a chance to enter a digital photo you took in a National Park in their, "Photography In The Parks Photo Contest", and win some great prizes.

Here's the link to the government's National Parks website.

Have fun and good luck, and remember to take a camera with you whenever possible. Look around, you'll find a picture somewhere.
