Bright yellow against background of a local school

Dina Banawis and her family took a break during their bike ride to rest and admire the colors from these trees adjacent to Ethan A. Chase Middle School. Dina is now eligible for the Photo of the Month award in our "Menifee in Pictures" contest.

We're looking for photos of a variety of scenes in Menifee, including landscapes, photos with people and animals ... whatever you feel portrays life in Menifee.

"Menifee in Pictures" is a regular feature on Menifee 24/7. Readers are invited to contribute photos for publication. Email your photo as a .jpg file to info@menifee247.com and selected photos will be published, along with your name as the photographer. Please include your full name on the submission and any explanation about where and when the photo was taken. If your photo is selected from among those published as the Photo of the Month, you will win a $25 gift certificate from Giovanni's Pizza Pasta and More, located at 26900 Newport Road in Menifee.
