The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control invites photographers to showcase their skills and love for nature in the new DNREC Photo Contest. Open to all ages and skill levels, this contest seeks to highlight Delaware’s outdoors through striking photography.
This new, expanded contest combines DNREC’s former photo contests into one unified program. Rather than holding separate competitions throughout the year for different areas, DNREC now invites participants to submit their best Delaware photos across four categories: People Enjoying Nature, Watersheds: Landscapes and Waterways, Wildlife and Aquatic Life, and Hunting and Fishing. A panel of DNREC experts, including a photographer, an educator, and an environmental scientist, will judge the entries and select one adult winner from each category. Youth photographers will also have a chance to shine, with one overall winner being chosen from all submissions.
The contest opens for registration at 8 a.m. Wednesday, Jan. 15. All entries must be submitted by 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 15. Late or incomplete entries or entries that have not followed the official contest rules will not be accepted…
