  • To submit your photos electronically, save them as JPG files of between 300bpi and 3MB, attach them to an
    email, enter ‘Photo Show’ as the subject of the email, type your name, address, phone number, provide a
    photo title, and the theme your photos represent in the body of the email, and send the email to
    [email protected].
  • To submit your photos in hard copy, print them out on 8×10 photo paper, enclose them and a completed copy
    of this form (download) in an envelope, and send the envelope to FUMC Lenten Photo Show, 603 State Street,
