Eighth Annual Public Transportation: Wherever Life Takes You Photo Invitational

Entry Deadline: October 22, 2007

(Download in Adobe PDF format)

The American Public Transportation Association is hosting its Eighth Annual Public Transportation: Wherever Life Takes You Photo Invitational. The invitational seeks photos from APTA members that depict public transportation's significance, value and benefits of opportunity, access, freedom, and mobility, which enable everyone in the community to accomplish what is important to them, all the while making communities stronger and more vibrant.  The winning photos will appear in the 2008 APTA calendar.

Whether it is creating more livable communities, providing access to seniors and the disabled, or one of the many other benefits public transportation provides to America, we have a great story to tell - and we need your help to tell it. We are looking for photos showing people benefiting from public transportation as they get to work, medical appointments, school, sporting events or countless other destinations. Photos should capture human emotion and make the connection of how individuals or communities benefit from public transportation.
