Congratulations to all winners!

The 2009 WWF-Canada Members-Only Photo Contest has been a spectacular and exciting contest with more than 300 entries. The three judges, Scott Pinkney, J.D. Taylor, and Patricia Buckley took great care in selecting the photos that uniquely capture the beauty of wildlife and wild places in Canada and around the world.

We sincerely thank all of our supporters who participated in the photo contest, our judges, as well as those who voted online to select our Grand Prize winners.

All winning photos will be featured in the 2010 WWF-Canada Wall Calendar, available for sale mid-October 2009.

These winning photos serve as a reminder that we need to do our very best to take care of our natural world.
