As of noon today, December 5, the contest is open for the 7th annual DCist Exposed Photography Show. Gather ye images of local culture and pick your best three. You can submit photos until January 9, but we highly suggest making a Flickr account now if you don’t have one yet. They’re free, but Flickr will usually take a few days to review new accounts to make sure they aren’t spam or otherwise inappropriate, so if you want until January 9, you might have problems getting your photos in the pool.
