National Wildlife Photo Contest Category Spotlight: Landscapes and Plant Life
One of our most popular annual events is the National Wildlife Photo Contest. Now in its 43rd year, the Photo Contest attracts entries from all over the world in seven categories and a separate Youth category for kids ages 13 to 17.
Today’s spotlight is on the “Landscapes and Plant Life” category, which focuses on scenic views and native plants in wild settings.
Last year’s first place winning photograph in this category comes from Spain, where photographer Francisco Mingorance used a long exposure to capture the unusual “star” of sea foam on the shore at night.
Honorable mentions included a creative shot of Common Salsify silhouetted against the sun, and the Milky Way wheeling over Devil’s Tower National Monument at night.
Check out this year’s entrants in the Photo Contest here. You can vote for and share your favorites or even enter your own photos. We’d love to see them!
