Introducing the Peeps in Places Photo Challenge!

| Comments (20)
UPDATE: We've extended the deadline for entries until April 13th!

PEEPSforBLOG.jpgWhat better way to celebrate the season than to put our readers up to a Peeps in Places Photo Challenge!

We want to know where you take your Peeps--in this case, the sugar-coated, marshmallowy kind! Put your Peeps in your suitcase and photograph them in an iconic travel destination or in your own neighborhood. Pick clever and recognizable settings and show us your Peeps!

Here's how it works: take a photo of one or more Peeps (original chicks, pink bunnies, or others--we're not biased) in any travel destination, add your photos to our Flickr pool, and then tag them "NGTpeeps." Please limit your entries to three per person.

Thumbnail image for pink-peep-white-house-3.jpgWe'll select photos and feature them on an interactive map on our website (stay tuned for our online Easter special, launching March 30) and five lucky "peeps" will be featured in an online gallery. Our favorite Peep photo will get a subscription to National Geographic Traveler and a gift from National Geographic Foods of the World. The winners will be announced on our blog, so please submit your Peeps photos by the end of Monday, April 13th, 2009.

Good luck! "Cluck" here to enter the Peeps in Places Photo Challenge and to start putting your Peeps photos in our Flickr pool!

I wouldn't be very good at this... I'd have to eat my photographic subjects.

Hi,

Where I come from, the sugar coated, marshmallowy peeps wouldn't be able to survive (cos its so hot!!)

Would our own stuffed toy (called Sheepy) qualify to enter the 'Peeps in Places Photo Challenge' ?

Need to know soon - Thanks!

Unfortunately we don't have these in the UK - at least, not until someone brings some to photograph :)
