A number of chapters have organized photo contests of locations. I guess the first thing to figure out is what kind of photos we would be looking for? --Doc James 03:05, 26 March 2011 (EDT)

We could open it up to any photograph taken in Canada and speak with the members of Wikiproject: Canada and see if they would be interested in judging the best photo based on a pre-established criteria. Alan.ca 04:21, 26 March 2011 (EDT)
That would dissipate our energies. Do we really want contests, and judging? That would put a different spin on things beyond just wanting good pictures of one's own community, and building an attitude of caring about community. Lots of pictures of landmarks from different angles would involve more people, and would give potential users more to choose from instead of everyone using the same stock shots. Can we work with local photography clubs? Eclecticology 14:35, 26 March 2011 (EDT)
