The contest, part of the Mattie Kelly Environmental Initiative, is open to amateur photographers of all skill levels. Entries must be original, high-quality photos taken in the Northwest Florida region.

Winning images and honorable mentions will be featured in the 2025 Mattie Kelly Environmental Institute calendar. The top three photographs will also receive cash prizes: $250 for first place, $150 for second, and $100 for third.

The submission deadline is July 4, 2025.
