Enter your photo to win a spot on the cover of Neighbors

That would be holiday photos as in Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and New Year’s - from this year or past years. Deadline is Friday, Dec. 15, with publication of the winner and runners-up scheduled for the Saturday, Dec. 23, edition of Allen Neighbors. You may submit as many photos as you wish and we’ll consider running them, especially if you have a package from a school, church or community festival. But only one photograph, identified by the photographer, may be submitted as a cover contest entry. Email your photos to allenneighbors@dallasnews.com
