Celebrating International Pet Day with CEWE Photo Award Entries

Whether you have furry friends of your own, know people who do or just love animals, who doesn’t love looking at cute photos of them? To celebrate International Pet Day, we’ve collated a handful of entries from the 2021/2022 CEWE Photo Award from the Animals category. As you can imagine, there is too much cuteness to squeeze into one blog, so we’ve rounded up a few to put a smile on your face.

The CEWE Photo Award 2023

The largest free to enter contest of its kind in the world, the CEWE Photo Award manages not only to reach and connect photo enthusiasts across the globe but also to showcase and celebrate earth’s beauty. Under the slogan “Our world is beautiful”, we’ve got ten different categories for you to submit your greatest photos to. Plus, CEWE will donate 10 Euro cents to our chosen charity, SOS Children’s Villages Worldwide, for each photo entered, meaning that just by taking part, you’re having a positive impact on the lives of children throughout the world.

The contest returns in 2023 for its fifth edition with a fresh line-up of photography industry experts on the judging panel and a renewed ambition to remain the world's largest photo competition of its kind.
