Congratulations to Our 2009 Photo Contest Winners!
The Rainforest Alliance's second photo contest received a multitude of stunning photos, all within the "Picture Sustainability" theme. We are proud to announce the Grand Prize and category winners, all of whom will receive prizes thanks to our sponsors at Fujifilm. With this wonderful collection of photos, we hope to raise awareness about conservation issues both in print and on the Web.
"Powerful images can provoke emotional responses and act as calls-to-action the way few other media forms can," explains Rainforest Alliance president Tensie Whelan. "Winning photos will captivate a wide audience and connect people to the beautiful ecosystems that the Rainforest Alliance helps to conserve."
