Photo Contest

The Mountain in Pictures 

Let your natural talent in photography shine bright! We’re looking for stunning images that capture the beauty of Mount Royal’s landscapes, focus on its flora and fauna, or zoom in on its breathtaking vistas. 

2020-2021 Edition: From Solstice to Equinox

Les amis de la montagne invites all photographers, from amateurs to seasoned professionals, to train their lens on the mountain and submit their best pictures of Mount Royal in exchange for amazing prizes and great exposure! 

​Deadline: October 25, 2021, before 8 a.m.

The awards ceremony and unveiling of the winning photos will take place on Saturday, November 13, 2021.

New Categories

This year, the contest will be divided into segments to better represent the mountain throughout the seasons. Each segment will feature categories that will be unveiled in the coming months.

Until March 21, 2021, we invite photographers to explore the following categories:

• Category 1 - The Mountain: Winter Fun and Fresh Air: showcase seasonal activities and sites on Mount Royal
• Category 2 - Landscape and Nature Below 0°: capture the mountain’s spaces and species during the winter 
• Category 3 - Youth Vision: for participants under 18 years old
• Category 4 - Instagram: get inspired and share your vision of the mountain with #mtroyalphoto2021 

Prizes

All winning photos will be printed, framed and exhibited at the Mount Royal Chalet from December 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022. Photos will also appear on Les amis de la montagne’s website.

The jury will designate a winner per category as well as a Grand Jury Prize winner. A prize will be awarded to each winner. Please refer to the contest rules for details about the prizes.
