​Have you taken striking photos of Port Coquitlam’s natural beauty? The City is again looking for community submissions to be featured in the 2023 calendar.

Submit your high-resolution images of Port Coquitlam landscapes, flowers and wildlife by Oct. 3 to portcoquitlam.ca/photos for a chance to see them featured in the 2023 community calendar, wrapped on hydro utility boxes or displayed at City facilities next year.

For the best possibility of having your photo selected, submit images that showcase Port Coquitlam landscapes, flowers and wildlife from all four seasons. Images that show the photo was taken in Port Coquitlam are preferred to close-ups.

Entitled Naturally PoCo, the City’s 2023 calendar will include the waste collection schedule, City information and space for users to write in their personal schedules.

All submitted photos will be placed at the end of this year in the online gallery at portcoquitlam.ca/photos and considered for use in the calendar, wrapped on hydro utility boxes, and other City publications.

Photo credits will be applied to all submitted photos used in the calendar, and whenever possible in other City publications.

To be considered for the calendar and banners, photos must meet the following criteria:

• Format: jpeg, png or tiff
• Orientation: horizontal for calendar
• Size: for calendars, at least 300 dpi at a size of 13” wide by 10” deep OR a file size of at least 2 MB.
• File label: include photo name, location, year taken and photographer’s name (e.g. Scenic Sunset-Pitt River-2021-Bob Smith.jpg)
