Hagerman NWR – 13th Annual Photo Contest
Every year in September, the Friends of Hagerman Photo Club sponsor a nature-themed photo contest. For a small fee per photo, photographers may enter as many photos as they wish.
All photographers are invited to participate in the contest, regardless of age or skill level. Divisions include Beginner and Intermediate/Advanced: all photographers, including youth, are welcome!
Ribbons will be awarded for First, Second, and Third place in each of four categories and in both divisions (Beginner and Advanced/Intermediate). In addition, a cash prize will be awarded for First Place in each category, and the photos judged as “Best of Show” and “Youth Best in Show”. Winners will be determined by a panel of judges, who will review the submitted photos without reference to entrant name.
Winners’ photographs will be displayed at the Refuge Visitor Center and published on the Friends of Hagerman website, Facebook page and other venues. The Nature Photo Contest Committee will coordinate and conduct the contest for the Refuge and the Friends of Hagerman NWR.
All photos entered in the contest must have been taken within Hagerman NWR boundaries within the past five years.
Entries will be accepted from September 1st through September 30, 2022.
Categories include: Landscapes, Flora and Macro, Artistic, and Wildlife.
