Kansai Captured

Kansai Scene 2010 Calendar
Readers photo Contest

It’s that time of year again, when we at Kansai Scene call out to all readers, asking for contributions to the annual calendar. This competition is open to anyone with access to a camera, so dust off your lenses, charge up those batteries, and start pointing the Pentax at anything you feel captures the true spirit of Kansai! Simply send your high-resolution pictures to mailbox@kansaiscene.com with details of where the shot was taken, and quite possibly, your Primo Pic could be published as part of the 2010 Kansai Scene Calendar. The lucky winners will have their name credited at the bottom of the photo and also receive a prize from one of our very generous sponsors. So get out there and snap, click, shoot and zoom them to us no later then November 30th for your chance to be part of Kansai Scene history.
