| Canadian Geographic is thrilled to announce the 2021 Canadian Photos of the Year competition is now open for entries, with a total of $10,000 in cash prizes to be won. This new iteration of Canadian Geographic’s longest-running photo competition will focus on the beauty of Canada: its wildlife, landscapes, cities and weather. Canadian Photos of the Year is a fresh take on our Annual Photo Competition, which ran for 36 years. This year, Canadian Geographic will recognize 13 exceptional photographers, including one grand-prize winner who will be named Canadian Photographer of the Year. The grand prize of $5,000 will be awarded to a single photographer who submits outstanding work to any category of the competition. Additionally, a category prize of $1,000 will be awarded for the best image submitted in each of four categories: Wildlife in Action, Epic Landscapes, City Life, and Weather, Seasons and Sky. The runner-up in each category will receive $250. Honourable mentions will receive a one-year subscription to Canadian Geographic magazine and a selection of Can Geo products. In addition to cash and other prizes, winning photographers will have their images published in the March/April 2022 issue of Canadian Geographic magazine and online. |
