Between the Lines: Submit Photos
It’s almost Halloween, which means it’s nearly next
year for our editors. We are already at work on the U.S. 1 2004
Datebook
and Calendar, our annual gift to each company that receives the
newspaper.
The 2004 calendar will list more than 1,100 separate events, selected
from more than twice that number in our events database, and we can
already predict what many of those events will be. But we cannot
predict
what photographs we will use to complement those listings. That’s
because this year we invite U.S. 1 readers to submit their photos.
We are looking for images that tell the story of a season or an event.
Maybe you snapped a great shot at a high school football or soccer
game, or you have a good prom photo. Dig out your favorite fall
foliage
scene or one of snow covering Carnegie Lake. What about that swimming
pool shot? Or the one of the little girls getting ready to go onstage
for their June dance recital? Somebody out there has a poignant
"back
to school" photo or one that tells a story of Princeton reunions.
Also think "holidays." There’s still time to take a picture
of fabulous Halloween costumes, and search your files for the
quintessential
Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, or Memorial Day photo.
As with our Summer Fiction and Poetry issue, we emphasize that this
is not a contest. We look forward to printing the work of U.S. 1
readers.
Preference will be given to those who work in the Princeton business
community, and everyone whose work is selected will receive an
honorarium.
The rules of submission are easy. We will accept one color print,
from 3 by 5 to 8 by 10 inches, made from your negative, slide, or
digital file. If we select your photo, we’ll give you further
instructions
on how to submit.
Deadline? Please send your print as soon as possible — we may
fall in love with the first Halloween parade photo we see — and
no later than Wednesday, November 19. Mail your print to U.S. 1
Newspaper,
12 Roszel Road, Suite C-205, Princeton 08540. If you want your
print returned, include a stamped envelope.
We also invite cultural and business groups to send date listings.
If you represent a major venue, we may have your 2004 events already
listed in our database. Take a look at our database online
and check to see what is already listed. Other groups should send
us their event listings through December 31, 2004. Give us as much
information as you can. When it gets closer to the date, you can fill
in the details.
Online Dining Review
More than three dozen restaurants tell their stories
in this issue. Have you an opinion about one of them? Go to
and click on the dining directory to see what others have written
and add your views.
Search on the word "fireplace" and you will find 13
restaurants
with glowing embers for the autumn chill. Or search on "BYOB"
or "takeout." You can also search by ethnicity. Two dozen
restaurants feature Italian menus, but there are also 18 that serve
Japanese food, with Indian, Mediterranean, and Mexican cuisine well
represented. Good eating!
