Hi all,
Here is a reminder about the Arctic Change 2014 photo contest. Also, as you are looking through your photos, please consider contributing to the CUNorth photo gallery (http://carleton.ca/northernresearch/photos/).
This is a reminder that the deadline for submitting your photos for the International Arctic Change 2014 Photo Contest is Friday, 31 October 2014.
Over the last few years, ArcticNet has been gathering photographs of Arctic scenery, people, flora, fauna and fieldwork captured as part of a variety of ArcticNet related activities in Canada and beyond. Many Arctic researchers and their collaborators are talented photographers visiting/studying some of the most remote and pristine environments on our planet. A selection of these great photos can be viewed on our Polar Photography gallery that also welcomes photos from Antarctica.
The main purpose of the International Arctic Change 2014 Photo Contest is to encourage Arctic researchers, partners and international collaborators to bring their great photos of the changing Arctic, its peoples, communities, landscapes, wildlife and research activities out in the open and to share them with the world. We invite you to send us your best shots!
Eligibility criteria and submission details for the contest are available HERE. Over $1000 in cash prizes will be awarded. Winners will be announced and photos showcased at the international Arctic Change 2014 conference in Ottawa in December 2014.
With its growing collection of stunning images, the Polar Photography gallery is quickly becoming an increasingly popular source of Arctic and Antarctic photos with media, education outlets and other research programs. In recent years, these photos have been featured in dozens of prominent national (The Gazette, Ottawa Life, Globe and Mail, UpHere, Above & Beyond, Canadian Geographic…) and international (Time Magazine, GEO Magazine, Washington Post, Le Monde, Al Jazeera…) print and electronic media publications. Photographers retain exclusive copyright of their photographs and receive a percentage of the revenues resulting from the use of their photos by third parties.
We thank you in advance for your contributions.
