The winners will be posted to Tropolism.<\/p>\n<p>The theme of the contest is uncovering the Hidden City, your Hidden City, the one you see every day.  It may be in plain sight of everyone else, but it is your eye that finds the extraordinariness in a particular street corner, a unique stair, a crazy intersection, a visually arresting approach, or a particular tree in the city.  The photographs can be of a beautiful (and perhaps unpublished) park, or as simple as the sun hitting a particular building at a particular time of day.  Please include a caption, or a Flickr annotation, about what makes it extraordinary to you.  The entries should have one thing in common: they demonstrate, to you, the pleasure of living in the city.<\/p>\n<p>The jury is a set of bloggers who write about architecture, urbanism, and landscape design.  They are:<\/p>\n<p>Lisa Chamberlain of <a href=\"http:\/\/nycenvirons.blogspot.com\/\">Polis<\/a> and who also covers real estate for the New York Times<br \/>\nDavid Cuthbert of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.architechnophilia.blogspot.com\/\">architechnophilia<\/a><br \/>\nGeoff Manaugh of <a href=\"http:\/\/bldgblog.blogspot.com\/\">BLDGBLOG<\/a><br \/>\nShawn Micallef of <a href=\"http:\/\/psychogeography.ca\/blog\/\">Toronto Psychogeography Society Blog<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.missrepresentation.com\/\">Miss Representation<\/a><br \/>\nJimmy Stamp of <a href=\"http:\/\/lifewithoutbuildings.net\/\">Life Without Buildings<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The 5 Categories are:<\/p>\n<p>Best Hidden Place<br \/>\nBest Density<br \/>\nBest Natural\/Urban Overlap<br \/>\nBest Unofficial Landmark<br \/>\nBest Building<\/p>\n<p>We will keep the contest open until March 10, 2006, and post winners the week of March 20.
