In this spirit, we’ve launched a dedicated site to house this contest and topic, so we’re pleased to introduce to you today the Study Abroad Photography Blog where you can get all the details about the contest, and more helpful hints and fun tips about photography as time goes on. What’s more? – 15 Minutes of Fame! The winning submission will be featured and announced on our website and in the 2009-2010 CEA Study Abroad Viewbook!

From abstracts to cityscapes to portraits to on campus photos, we want you to express yourself.
