GOT A CAMERA? ENTER THIS YEAR'S FOTO FEST

A page of today's Southeast Missourian is devoted to four recent photographs submitted for this year's Foto Fest contest, sponsored by the Southeast Missourian along with Schnuck's, Albertson's, St. Francis Medical Center, Mac's Smokehouse, Cape Girardeau Regional Airport and Westfield Shoppingtown.

What gorgeous works of art they are.

All were taken by shutterbugs in Southeast Missouri and Southern Illinois.

There will be weekly winners picked through Aug. 10. They each receive $10 Shoppingtown gift certificates and certificates of recognition. The prizes get even better for finalists and grand-prize winners.

Entry forms are available at drop-off locations, including the Southeast Missourian offices in Cape Girardeau and Jackson, Mo., and at the Westfield Shoppingtown's customer service center. Entries also can be mailed to Foto Fest 2001, c/o Westfield Shoppingtown West Park, 134 West Park Mall, Cape Girardeau, Mo. 63701.

Or, you can find complete information about Foto Fest at the Southeast Missourian's Web site: semissourian.com/fotofest.

Each week, winning photos will be published in the Southeast Missourian and posted on the Web site. In addition, several honorable-mention photos will be on the Web site each week.

Happy snapping!
