Pacific Whale Foundation’s “Whale of a Photo” Contest Seeking Entries

PC: Pacific Whale Foundation.

Pacific Whale Foundation invites nature photographers of all levels to enter their “Whale of a Photo Contest.” Photographers with a passion for ocean conservation are raising vital funds for PWF’s research, education and conservation programs with each submission.  Entrants have a chance to appear on the cover of the non-profit’s “2021 Marine Life Calendar”.

From Aug. 31 through Sept. 14, PWF invites shutterbugs of all levels to compete for a chance to have their snap of a whale, dolphin, sea turtle, ray or other ocean animal appear on the cover of PWF’s 2021 Marine Life Calendar.  The calendared is a fundraising vehicle to help PWF continue its current research and influence management practices of our oceans’ delicate ecosystems and protection policies.
