The Chesapeake Bay Foundation 2021 Save The Bay Photo Contest is now accepting entries from youth, amateur and professional photographers to highlight the beauty and character of the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed's rivers and streams through the eyes of those who enjoy them. 

The deadline for entries is April 2.

Images depicting people, wildlife, recreation, and farms within the watershed will all be considered, however all photos must include a body of water within the Chesapeake Bay watershed, such as a pond, lake, river, stream, creek, or the Bay itself.
