MELVILLE, N.Y., June
1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, announced today its partnership with Emmy Award
nominee Candace Cameron Bure, host
of TV's The View and star of the hit Netflix series
Fuller House, in support of the Canon Little League Photo
Contest powered by PIXMA Printers. As part of the "Picture Perfect
Season" initiative that kicked off last month, Bure will be on hand
at the Little League Baseball® World Series in
South Williamsport, PA, on
August 21 to meet the winners and
unveil the winning photos.
"As a mom and sports enthusiast, I'm a huge fan of activities
that bring families together to create special memories," said
Bure. "I'm excited to join Canon and Little League in this
celebration of family photos, and showcase the love of the
game."
Fans are encouraged to make the season last a lifetime by
submitting some of their favorite photo moments to the Canon Little
League Photo Contest. By submitting photos through
June 30, fans will have
the chance to win one of three trips to join Candace
in South Williamsport, PA, and see their photos on
display in the World of Little League Museum in the Richard "Hank"
Bauer, Jr. Little League Photography Exhibit in the World Series
Gallery presented by Easton Foundations.
"Canon is delighted to welcome Candace to this year's
Little League World Series, to join us as we encourage fans
everywhere to capture and share quality memories of this exciting
sporting event," said Yuichi
Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc. "She is a great supporter who
understands the power of the printed image and the importance of
sharing those images with fans worldwide."
The Canon Little League Photo Contest powered by PIXMA Printers
focuses on three themes:
- Stepping Up To The Plate—an in-action game
shot
- Fandemonium—a photo that showcases fandom
- Team Spirit—a photo that showcases team spirit
So whether it's a whole crowd cheering in the stands or a
victorious Little League team on the field, all images should
capture the spirit of what it means to be a fan. Entries will be
judged on the use of the theme and on the quality of the image and
overall impression.
For tips and tricks on capturing the winning shot, fans are
encouraged to print PIXMA's "Picture Perfect Season Toolkit".
