Color in Nature Calendar
Assignment & Contest Open From
Sep 28 - Oct 22, 2015
“Nature always wears the colors of the spirit,” Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote. We agree. For our assignment this month, join us in a soulboosting celebration of color in nature. Could be the vibrant blue of a hummingbird, the warm red of a fox, or the cool green of an iguana. Just send us the best burst you can find.
Our editorial team will choose the 12 best submissions based on appeal, composition, originality, and technical quality. Those chosen will be featured in our 2016 Wild View calendar. We can consider a maximum of four per contributor, so get us your favorites.
ENTER FOR A CHANCE TO WIN
For this assignment, we’re offering a prize incentive. Those who submit the 12 photos chosen for the calendar will each receive a Vanguard gift card, plus five copies of the printed calendar. The calendar cover image will be chosen by our readers and that submission will also receive a Vanguard gift card. See the official Contest Rules.
