SCWF Sponsors 2016 Photo Contest

The S.C. Wildlife Federation (SCWF) is sponsoring the 14th annual Wildlife Photography Contest. Amateur photographers are invited to submit their best pictures capturing the beauty of South Carolina’s nature—both its natural landscapes and amazing and unique creatures. Contest categories are Carolina Critters and Scenes of South Carolina.

Entries must be images taken within the state. Captive, domestic and exotic species will not be considered. The contest is open to amateur photographers only. SCWF employees, its board members and immediate family members are not eligible. Each photographer must submit a one-time entry fee of $15, which covers up to six contest photo entries (three per category). Entries must be postmarked no later than 5 p.m., Friday, July 15. The winners will be notified by the end of August. First-, second- and third-place finishes will be awarded and published online. Contest photo entries must be mailed to SCWF Photography Contest, 215 Pickens Street, Columbia, 29205, or sent electronically to [email protected].
