What’s there to submit and to whom?
Submit a self-portrait (with yourself in it, of course!) to the Jeffrey W. Burger Photography Facebook page. The picture has to be you, yourself, and only yourself. There can be no other persons in the picture besides yourself, but your picture should be unique, creative, and, most of all, it should be you! Have fun, and express yourself! Anything goes (as long as it is legal and in good taste!) and we are open to new ideas.

You can submit your self-portraits after 12:01 a.m. Sunday, January 1, 2012 until the deadline at midnight on Wednesday, February 29, 2012.
