Photo Caption Contest

8. August 2008

Posted by Christina Folz, OPN Managing Editor

With 92 years of history under our belt, the Optical Society has accumulated scores of photos. Although we’ve captured many moments, we haven’t always captured the who, what and where information that must have seemed so obvious at the time the photo was snapped. Help us breathe new life into our images by providing your own imaginative captions to one of the images below. It could be a cartoon-style quote or a creative description of what you see. We’ll share your best captions in a future issue of OPN.

Send your captions to opn@osa.org or post them on our blog at www.osa-opn.org. (Remember to specify which image you are captioning…or don’t; it might be more fun that way.)
