Photo Contest for the 2017 GAW Calendar

The GAW 2016 Calendar was a great success and we received a lot of positive feedback. We would therefore like to make a similar calendar also for 2017.

For this, we invite you to send photos of stations or activities that are relevant to GAW. Unfortunately, there is no money prize for the 13 photos that we will select, but you will be credited with your name in the photo caption.

The photos will be printed in 10 cm x 15 cm landscape format. Make sure that your photo is of good quality and that it has at least 1200 pixels along the short side and at least 1800 pixels along the long side. The photos should be in JPEG format. The best would be that you send the photo as it comes out of the camera without editing.

Below you see examples of photos that are suitable for the calendar.

Please send your photos no later than 9 December to this email address: gaw@wmo.int

We are looking forward to your input.
