Information

The NRCS - Ohio Photo Gallery is a collection of photos depicting the natural resources and conservation practices from all across the great state of Ohio. Most of the photos contained in this gallery were taken by Ohio NRCS employees.

Each quarter a Digital Photo Contest is conducted and the first, second, and third place winners are selected and presented on this site. The winning photo each quarter will be the featured photo on this page. Every Ohio NRCS employee is encouraged to enter the contest.

Employees are also encouraged to submit digital photos throughout the year to the Visual Information Assistant for inclusion in the Digital Photo Gallery. There is no need to wait for the seasonal photo contest to submit photos. Follow the guidelines contained in the Contest Rules for the Camera Settings, Information Needed, and the Types (Categories) of Photos.

Go to the Quarterly Contest Winners page to see this quarter's winners.
