We had over 100 submissions for our third annual World Oceans Day photo contest. People from across the world shared their photos illustrating the theme "Oceans of Life."

Our judges, and guests attending the World Oceans Day event, have chosen two winners and two runners-up. Thank you to everyone who participated in the contest. We were thrilled with the response!
