Love to get out in the wild?
Are you planning any trips this summer for hiking, backpacking, climbing, or any other fun outdoor activity? We want to see where you go!
Washington Wild’s Summer Photo Contest will be held now until August 7th, 2017. Simply take your camera on trips into Washington’s wonderful wild places (see details below) and snap some photos of landscapes, flora & fauna, recreation, people out in the wild, or whatever captures your eye. Then, send your best shots to office@wawild.org!
The top 3 photos will win a cash prize from Washington Wild! The winning photographs will also be printed in large format, matted, framed, and displayed during our fall event, WILD NIGHT OUT. They will be auctioned off at the event, with the proceeds supporting Washington Wild’s efforts to protect wild lands and waters in our state. Additionally, all photographers who enter will be invited to be part of an art show in October to showcase their photography at Stretch and Staple!
