Calling All Nature Photographers!

First posted on 11-24-2008

The Nature Conservancy invites you to view more than 100,000 stunning nature images taken by thousands of photographers—from beginners to professionals—from around the world at the Conservancy’s online photo-sharing group.

“The Conservancy has built an interactive community of people who love nature photography,” said Evan Parker, the Conservancy’s manager of digital membership. “It’s a place to be inspired, and to inspire others.”

Initially launched as an entry point for the Conservancy’s first annual photo contest, the site has blossomed, now engaging a community of thousands of nature-lovers around the world. Nature.org/flickr now hosts more than 100,000 nature photos—and it only takes a minute to upload your favorite nature image.

In addition to sharing images with others, group members can enter the Conservancy’s annual photo contest, help vote to select the annual contest’s grand prize winner and, throughout the year, enter mini-competitions which include publication in the award-winning Nature Conservancy magazine. The next challenge, Oceans and Seas, closes in just a few weeks, so submit your ocean, coral reef and marine life images by December 11, 2008.
