The first Share the View contest was held in 2011. Since that time the contest has expanded to a global audience and receives entries from all over the world

The impact of powerful nature images is undeniable. One goal of Share the View is to connect people to the natural world and inspire us to become better stewards. The other goal is to contribute funds to organizations actively working in conservation and education. Net proceeds from the contest are distributed to deserving beneficiaries to aid in these efforts.

Share the View has again selected three conservation beneficiaries: Bird Conservancy of the Rockies, LightHawk, and African People & Wildlife. Please see our Beneficiaries page and visit their websites to learn more about these groups.

African People and Wildlife: We are extremely grateful to be a non-profit beneficiary of Share the View. We are truly inspired to see so many photographers coming together in support and celebration of nature."
