Our close personal friends at JPG Magazine are holding a photo contest for aspiring shooters. All you have to do is upload a few cool photos by December 31st and we’ll help them pick a winners from the pool. This is a great opportunity to show of your photo skillz and get a very cool quad-band camera phone with 5-megapixel camera and 3X zoom.

JPG Magazine is a community-created photography magazine, and one of the themes that will be published in issue 15 is called “Surroundings - Places that mean the most to you”, sponsored by the Samsung G800. If you submit your photos, not only do you have a chance to be published in the magazine, but with help from TechCrunch and CrunchGear we are giving away 5 new Samsung G800 camera phones with 3x optical inner zoom and 5 megapixel cameras. Photos submission guidelines can be found here and all photos must be submitted before December 31st, 2007 here.

I know we’ve tried these contests before and you guys are traditionally “lazy” when it comes to submitting stuff, but JPG is a serious photography magazine that publishes new work and we want to impress them with some great photos from CG readers. Please don’t make us look like bigger jerks than we already are.
