Submit your best shots to the Wyoming Wildlife photo contest
Wyoming Wildlife magazine invites wildlife photographers to enter the 2016 photo contest. The grand-prize winner will receive $300, and his or her photo will be printed in the February 2017 issue of Wyoming Wildlife along with winners in each category.  

“Wyoming is full of fantastic photo opportunities, and we’re excited to feature some of these shots in our magazine,” said Justin Joiner, Game and Fish’s Wyoming Wildlife creative director.

Photos must have been taken in Wyoming and cannot have been previously submitted to (or taken on assignment for) Wyoming Wildlife. Employees of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department, Wyoming Game and Fish Commissioners and their immediate families are ineligible.

Eligible contestants can submit photographs in the following categories:
  • wildlife (wild mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods)
  • scenic (in which landmarks, scenery or inanimate objects are prominent)
  • recreation (people enjoying the outdoors through hunting, fishing, hiking, backpacking, skiing or other outdoor activities)
  • flora (wildflowers, foliage, fruiting bodies or other parts of plants).
“This year, we’re especially looking for more entries in the recreation and flora categories,” said Joiner.
Contest entry is free and photographers may submit up to 10 photos. To enter, send:
  • A CD-ROM or DVD containing no more than 10 digital photographs with the photographer’s name written on the disc. Digital files must be JPEGs, 300 ppi and at least 17 inches in their longest dimension. Name entries with the category and entry number (examples: flora1.jpg, recreation2.jpg, wildlife3.jpg).
  • The entry form (preferred) or a document containing the same information.
Entries can be submitted to: Photo Contest, Wyoming Wildlife, 5400 Bishop Blvd., Cheyenne, WY, 82006.

All entries must be postmarked by the contest closing date, Nov. 21, 2016. For more information and complete submission guidelines and prizes, visit the photo contest web page. For questions, contact Justin Joiner at (307) 777-4547.
