The contest

Many of us have found being outdoors to be a time of respite during this challenging year. Perhaps you found solace on a quiet walk through the woods, a sense of renewal as you watched the seasons change, or a spark of hope as you witnessed other miracles of our natural world.

In that spirit we have chosen Connections as the theme of our 2020 photo contest, and invite you to share how you have found a sense of connection to Wisconsin’s lands, waters, and wildlife this past year.

Thank you for being a part of our mission and for letting us see our work through your lens.
