2011 Environmental Photographer of the Year

The winners will be announced publicly only after all winners have been contacted throughout September 2011. If you have not been contacted by the end of September, it will mean that you have not won, so please do not email CIWEM to check if you are a winner.

CIWEM's Environmental Photographer of the Year encourages entries that are contemporary, creative, resonant, challenging, original and beautiful. But most of all, we want your pictures to inspire people around the world to start taking care of our environment.

Prizes:  The winning entries share a prize fund of £5,000. We also provide the opportunity to sell your images to the media for editorial use and to the public as part of a limited edition print run.
