Enjoy the crisp, fall air and the changing colours of the season by taking part in the CPAWS Manitoba Fall Photo Contest. Wildlife, landscapes, backcountry hikes, backyard adventures — we want to see it all! Just get those entries in by October 18, 2021, for your chance to win.
Our team at CPAWS Manitoba will select three winners, one for each category. The categories are:
- Nature shots: any photo without people in it — it could be a landscape shot, a close-up of a plant, etc.
- People enjoying nature: any photo in nature that also features people nearby or in the distance
- Animals in nature: this could be Manitoba wildlife or your pet out on an adventure with you
Everyone who submits a photo will be entered into a random draw for one more prize. You can enter up to five photos, so the more you enter, the higher chance you have to win the draw!
Want yet another chance to win? In addition to submitting your photo through the online form, post your photo on your Instagram feed with the hashtag #CPAWSFallPhoto, and you’ll be entered into another random draw strictly for those who share their entry on Instagram!
And yet another bonus: the first 25 people who submit their photos will receive a CPAWS Manitoba sticker or magnet!

Outdoor Fun with the CPAWS Manitoba Nature Club
This contest is part of the CPAWS Manitoba Nature Club, which has three main components: Outdoor Learning, Outdoor Fun (contests fall under this), and Speaker Series.
