Normally we don’t allow guests to win in more than one category, but there were a couple instances where photographers were deserving of multiple awards. These are unprecedented times, so we made the unprecedented decision to waive that rule for this year’s contest.

Congratulations to all the winners—there are some wonderful images here. I especially like the wide range of styles, everything from documentary to fine art. Congrats also to everyone who entered. I am always amazed how each of us see the world through our own unique styles. Beautiful work, keep it up! Cheers, Jad
Thank you Jad! Those are certainly nice compliments coming from a professional photographer/author like yourself. We’re sure our our guest photographers will appreciate them! We 100% agree with you on the wide range of styles. It certainly is interesting to view the world through someone else’s eyes. Every year we get something unique and stylishly different, from documentary to fine art. You just never know what will find its way into your your lens while walking the wild tundra, but you already know that! Hope all is well with you!
