2026 WallMag Awards
Witness the Wild Through Your Lens
Submissions closing soon
WallMag Wildlife Photography Awards 2026 celebrate India's most patient and observant wildlife photographers — those who turn long hours in the field into images that move us. The award welcomes work across mammals, birds, reptiles, marine life, and habitat photography — frames that honour their subjects and tell the story of the wild. Entries are evaluated through a curated industry jury alongside an open community vote, recognising both technical mastery and conservation-grade storytelling. Selected creators earn national visibility, partner brand collaboration opportunities, and a place in WallMag's wildlife photography legacy.

What to Upload
Submit up to 5 of your strongest, original wildlife photography works. Each submission may include a single piece or a coherent set telling one story. We are excited about fine field portraits, behaviour sequences, habitat frames, and conservation stories — work that is patient, honest, and original.
Submissions must be your own original work and ownership. Do not upload AI-generated, stock-licensed, or plagiarised content — entries containing these will be disqualified without refund. Submit at the highest available quality the platform allows.
Briefly describe the concept, process, or story behind each submission — context helps the jury and community connect with your craft.
