***WHALE OF A PHOTO CONTEST UPDATE***
The Whale of a Photo Contest Voting Round has officially closed!
Congratulations to this year's winner, Sherry Ringer. Sherry's photo, Afternoon Siesta, will be featured on the cover of the
2023 PWF Marine Life Calendar.
Mahalo to all of our finalists and to our supporters who voted!
Nature Photographers of the world heeded the call for entries, and between July 27 and August 10, over 200 marine life photos were submitted to Pacific Whale Foundation's (PWF) third annual Whale of a Photo Contest! A panel of judges selected the top 12 entries to be published in the 2023 Marine Life Calendar, but now PWF is calling on the public to choose the photo that will grace its cover.
Beginning August 22, vote for your favorite photo in support of PWF's mission! Votes are $1 each with no limit on the number of votes allowed per entry. All funds raised directly benefit PWF's Research, Education and Conservation programs. The image receiving the most votes will be featured on the cover of our 2023 Marine Life Calendar including a brief bio highlighting the winning photographer.
The Photo Voting Round has been EXTENDED! All votes must be cast by 12 pm HST on September 7, so don't delay! With your help, Pacific Whale Foundation can continue its work to protect the ocean through science and advocacy, and inspire environmental stewardship!
