Anole Photo Contest–Grand Prize Winner Gets a Prize!

To celebrate Anole Annals‘ move to a new platform (https://www.anoleannals.org/), yesterday we announced a photography competition–winning photographs will be put into the rotation of header images displayed at the banner at the top of the page. And now we add a sweetener to the pot. The Grand Prize winner will receive a copy of Lizards in an Evolutionary Tree: Ecology and Adaptive Radiation personally signed, with great embellishment and profuse gratitude, by the author himself. Surely a valued keepsake for years to come!

In order to be considered, an image must be precisely 1000 pixels wide by 288 pixels high.  We’ll credit you as photographer wherever possible, but ask that images not include any text or watermarks.  You can submit your images using our blog’s new ability to easily add images to a comment; just click the “Choose File” link beneath the comment box and navigate to your JPEG photo.  One way to do this is to use Photoshop to resize individual images. From the Image Menu: go to “Image Size” then change the width to 1000 px.

Get your photos in now. Deadline some time soon, once we have enough good entries. Good luck! May the best photographer win!

  39. Please make sure your entries meet our specifications (1000 pixels wide x 288 pixels high). Images that are not the correct size will not be considered in the voting. Resizing an image is a trivial exercise, but not one that you should expect me to do for you!

    Anolis isthmicus from Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, Mexico

    • Ramon, the images look nice, but look like they’ve been stretched and distorted. Perhaps this was something that happened when you attempted to resize them?

      • Ramon E. Martínez-Grimaldo

        what can I make to resolve this problem ?

        • Make sure that you constrain the proportions when you resize rather than just changing the height or width independently.

          • Ramon E. Martínez-Grimaldo

            ok, I’ll upload the pictures again
