Vistek would like to congratulate and thank all of the photographers who entered our Capture Canada Photo Contest which ran from May 1 – June 30, 2017.
We were very impressed with all of the high quality photos (424 to be exact) that were entered, and while we wish we could award all of our participants, we did have the tough job of whittling it down to just final three images.
So, without further ado, here are the three winning images as chosen by our panel of judges.

Image Caption: A late spring evening and the northern lights reflecting on Crimson Lake Alberta. My friend has a cabin on the lake and we have been waiting for this moment. She paddles out and in the silence of the night aurora begins to dance as the loons start their eerie call … it really doesn’t get more Canadian than that in my mind.

Image Caption: This is an image of the Lunar Eclipse and resulting “Blood Moon” over the Tepee located in Medicine Hat Alberta Canada. It is a symbolic image that speaks of our Canadian and native aboriginal heritage, and the roots of our countries solid belief in history and family.
Many tribes kept track of time and their historical stories by observing the seasons and lunar months, and the Tepee represents a history and a home; a place where families came together over the fire.
