Share your best photograph of something Uniquely Clearwater!*

What do you think is "Uniquely Clearwater"? We all know that Clearwater is bright and beautiful from bay to beach, but what else makes our community unique? Show us and you could win a $100 gift card!

What should I photograph?

We have some of the most beautiful beaches around, but what is something no other city features? We'd love to see you capture pictures of something truly unique to Clearwater! Is there something you love about your neighborhood? What makes you smile when you see it? Submit your best photo that captures what you feel showcases the beauty and charm of our city. Photos may be of landscapes, architecture, nature, wildlife, art, or other significant aspects that are uniquely Clearwater.

How do I enter?

The contest will run for four weeks, beginning Monday, May 24 and ending on Sunday, June 20. The photo with the most "likes" at the end of each week will be the winner of that week, and the photographer will be able to choose a $100 gift card from one of three categories: a local restaurant; a grocery store; or a home improvement center.

Submit your photo below, then make sure you check out others' submissions. You may see something new. Also, don't forget to vote for your favorite photo and spread the word to others so they can vote too!

What else do I need to know?

Submitted or winning photos may be used within the Clearwater 2045 Comprehensive Plan.

For best results, please upload a square photo to avoid "stretching" of the image.

Please read the Terms and Conditions
