Every Lion (from a club in good standing) can enter a photograph of his or her immediate surroundings into the club-level Lions Environmental Photo Contest.

The purpose of the photo contest is to showcase the beauty of nature. In 1972, Lions Clubs International made a commitment to protecting the environment.

Lions can enter photographs of their environment (without people) in one of the following five categories:

• animal life
• plant life
• urban or natural landscape
• weather phenomenon
• a special annual theme

Winning club-level photographs will advance to the district, multiple district, and international competitions. Registered attendees of the Lions international convention will vote for the six (includes Best of Show) international photo contest winners.

The six photos will appear on this Web site. The six Lions photographers will receive an award.
