April 2015 Photo Contest: Wild selfies

Your creativity behind the camera lens could win you bragging rights! Enter the WWF Photo Contest and your photo and name could be featured in next month’s e-newsletter.
Did you know, nearly 90 per cent of Canadians say they feel happier when they are connected to nature?* It is something we experience and benefit from each day. Whether it’s taking a hike, riding a bike or cleaning up our shores, we want to see how you are engaging with nature this month with your wild selfies!

While you’re outside, think about what you could do to connect your whole community with nature. We are currently accepting applications for Go Wild, and will award five projects up to $1,000 to help nature thrive. Hurry – the deadline to apply is April 15.
Last month’s Graeme Loader Photography Board was full of beautiful water photos from coast-to-coast-to-coast.

Thanks so much to everyone who shared their wonderful photos of lakes, streams, oceans and more! You can view them all here.
