Show us your forest photos and become the 2020 PEFC Photographer of the Year!

22 April 2020 Forests in photos

It is Earth Day today and the PEFC Photo Contest is back! From today until World Environment Day on 5 June, we invite photographers and forest lovers from around the world to enter their forest photos.

Forest landscapes, close ups, or people living, working or playing in the forest – let your imagination run free! We can't wait to see some amazing forest photos, let's see if we can get even more than last year!

And while many of us are stuck inside, it is the perfect moment to escape to the forests in our imaginations! You can still submit your old photos of forests and help all of us to dream away for a moment.

Open to all

From amateur to professional photographers, everybody is welcome to take part and share their photos of our world’s wonderful forests.

Taking part is easy. Just head to www.pefc.photo to see if the contest is running in your country. Then head to Instagram and enter your photograph mentioning the hashtag of your country, or follow the instructions on www.pefc.photo – it is as simple as that!

And even if there isn't a photo contest running in your country, you can follow the contest hashtags to see some great forest images.
