The Ranchland Trust of Kansas (RTK) is excited to announce the launch of its 14th annual photography contest, inviting photographers of all ages and skill levels to capture the natural beauty and working landscapes of Kansas ranchland.
Entries will be open through September 4 to both amateur and professional photographers. Participants are encouraged to submit images that reflect RTK’s mission, “To preserve Kansas’ ranching heritage and open spaces for future generations through the conservation of working landscapes.” Photographers may submit up to five photos that highlight the diverse faces, seasons and scenes of life on Kansas ranchlands. Winners will be selected in 10 categories, including special categories for KLA members and youth.
Photos will be judged by a panel of representatives from RTK and KLA, along with this year’s special guest judge, acclaimed National Geographic photographer and Kansas native Jim Richardson. With more than 35 years of global experience, Richardson brings a distinguished eye to the competition. He and his wife, Kathy, own Small World Gallery in Lindsborg, where his work is showcased.
L’image, a Wichita-based photography and printing company, returns again this year as the contest sponsor. To learn more and to submit entries, click here.
