2018 Photo Contest

Chipmunk by Phyllis Keating

Starting May 22nd and running until August 12th, we will be accepting photo entries which capture the beauty of Canadian nature all around us. Special prizes from our generous supporters are available for the winners who will be announced.

The Nature Photo Contest is a celebration of the plants and animals, landscapes and nature moments that bring us joy and happiness. Our hope is to encourage more Canadians to get outdoors and to connect with nature across the summer months.

In case you were looking for inspiration, we’ve created a variety of themes into which you can submit your photo(s)!

  • Canadian Landscape – see our breathtaking country
  • People in Nature – how you’re connecting with nature
  • Nature Nearby – explore nature in your backyard
  • Nature in Action – soaring, crawling, hiking, flying, climbing
  • Fauna & Flora – discover the wonder in Canadian wildlife

There will be Early Bird draws, so get your submissions in early! See our rules and regulations for more information.
