For the next thirty days, you have the opportunity to impact the life of a bold, new publication called JPG Magazine. Now entering into their second year, JPG wants to honor the works of nonprofessional photographers in crazy exciting ways. If their online community votes for your photo, it might just show up in the next issue (plus you get a free subscription and $100... not bad!). So if I may promote my own submissions, get in there and vote! There are three themes in JPG Magazine's Issue 9:

• The Treacherous Commute from last winter's blizzard in NYC. Part of the "9 to 5" Theme, featuring photos of people on the job.


• Long Island City and the glowing nightlife of Queens. Part of the "Street" Theme, showing the world as it is.


• A Quiet Moment at Crim Dell at the College of William and Mary. Part of the "Elegance" Theme, finding beauty in the everyday.
