Do you love nature photography? Then the Michigan Nature Association is looking to showcase your photos in the sixth annual MNA Sanctuary Photo Contest!

Winners will be featured in an upcoming issue of Michigan Nature magazine and will appear in a special gallery on the MNA website. Visit the Photo Contest Gallery to see last year's winners.

Photos can be taken anywhere in the state of Michigan, and can highlight Michigan's natural beauty in any way. Photos will be judged in three categories: Flora & Fauna, Landscapes, and People in Nature.

To enter, download and fill out the entry form. Photos and completed forms can be emailed to michigannature@michigannature.org or mailed on a CD or flashdrive to the MNA office.

Entries must be received by September 1, 2016.

All photos must be:

  • taken in the state of Michigan.
  • in one of the three categories.
  • submitted with a filled-out entry form.
  • submitted as a jpg, tif or gif file (photo quality of 300 dpi is preferred).
  • received no later than September 1, 2016.


We look forward to seeing your favorite parts of nature and some of Michigan's best flora, fauna, and landscapes through your lens!
