Challenge #2 Most Sites added in a single state

[edit]

A barnstar will be awarded to the photographer who adds the most photos to previously non-illustrated sites on any county lists. An honorable mention barnstar will be awarded to everyone with at least 50 additions to a single state.

Challenge #7 State traveler

[edit]

In order to encourage NRHP photographic road trips, a barnstar will be awarded for the two photos, uploaded by the same photographer during the contest period, that are the greatest distance apart but within the same state. An honorable mention barnstar will be awarded to everyone with two photographs at least 250 miles apart.

To self-report your two most distant photos, just include both photos and their geographical coordinates (e.g. in the form {{Coord|xx.xxxx|N|xx.xxxx|W}} in the gallery below, and include the distance calculated from Google Maps. You can copy the coords from the county lists. Note that Google maps can give contradictory distances, and we will check for the shortest distance calculated:

Challenge #12 Scavenger Hunt

[edit]

A barnstar will be awarded to the photographer, who for any state, posts one photo in each of the following categories or types of NRHP sites:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 ... Oregon, 10 categories

While a photo may fit into many categories, e.g. a photo of wagon ruts next to a school and post office in a small town historic district, only one photo per historic site or historic district may be used for this challenge, and it counts for only one category. Please self-report by including one photo link per category (10 total photos maximum) in the following format

[[:File:Photo of a bridge.jpg|1]], [[:File:Photo of a HD.jpg|2]], .... Name of State, Total number of categories filled ~~~~

Barnstars will be awarded to any photographer with photos in all 10 categories, or if no photographer fills all 10 categories for a state, the one who has the most categories filled in that state.
