Canon, NFL Hall of Fame Team Up for Photo Contest

Canon and the NFL Hall of Fame are in the midst of a contest that gives youth football fans a chance to submit their best photos to try to win a trip to Super Bowl XLIV and the Hall of Fame.

Any photo of children and youths playing football is eligible, whether it was shot in the backyard or at a league game. The contest is open to amateur photographers, with separate divisions for adults and teen-agers. Photos can be submitted up to Dec. 2 through the Canon contest Web site. After a judging panel narrows the number of photos in the contest, fans will be able to vote online for the winner from Dec. 21 through Jan. 8, 2010.

In addition to the contest, Canon will make a donation of $150,000 worth of products to NFL Youth Education Towns throughout the United States.
