Surprises
Julie Larsen Maher ©WCS Assignment Open From
May 7 - Jun 23, 2019
The natural world offers countless surprises.
Colorful chameleons have eyes that move independently and certain big cats like to make a splash (a Malayan tiger swimming, right). Both reflect the unexpected.
Have you been inspired to take photos of animals with special features, adaptations, or abilities? Share your pictures of moments when nature surprised you.
Our editorial team will choose the best submissions based on appeal, composition, originality, and technical quality. A group of chosen shots for this assignment will be posted on this page and one will be featured.
We can consider a maximum of four submissions per contributor.
NOTE: For this assignment, we’re offering an incentive. The author of the featured photo chosen by our editorial team will receive a Patagonia Atom Pack, perfect for transporting your gear to the office, the crag, or the beach. See the official Contest Rules.
