Photo Contest

Every year, CPAWS Southern Alberta runs a photography contest called "Capture the Wild," generously sponsored by Mountain Equipment Co-op and The Camera Store. This contest is designed to raise awareness and funds in support of CPAWS and Alberta’s wilderness conservation. CPAWS invites photographers of all ages to capture the beauty of Canada’s wild spaces. Below are the winning photos from 2010 & 2011. Please see our "Events" section for information about our upcoming Capture the Wild photo contest.
