From now until Sunday, Jan. 20 we will be accepting winter-themed submissions for a cover photo for us to use on Barnstable Hyannis Patch's Facebook page.

Whether it's a photo of a historic building, a snowman, or people just going about their day, we want to see your take on Barnstable. Be creative and try to capture the essence of the town.

There's no age requirement to submit: You just have to be a Barnstable Hyannis Patch user and be able to create a 100 percent original piece of work owned by you for us to use. You agree to grant Patch the royalty free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive right and license to use the work on Barnstable Hyannis Patch’s Facebook page. You must have permission to show all individuals seen in the work. If minor children are included in the work, you must be their parent or guardian, or obtain written consent from their parent or guardian prior to submitting the work.
