The annual Ocean Views contest, run jointly by DAN, Nature’s Best Photography and Wetpixel is closing for entries on 15 December. The contest is not judged in categories, in order to encourage a diverse variety of entries that depict life below, above, and around the ever-changing ocean surface.

The winning images will be published in spring editions of Nature’s Best Photography and Alert Diver magazines, as well as here on Wetpixel. Photos will be judged on technical quality, composition, originality, and artistic merit. Professional photographers, amateurs, and youths (18 and under) are welcome to enter. You may submit a total of up to 20 images for one entry fee.
