Del 7 de septiembre al 6 de octubre, Somos el Agua está organizando un concurso fotográfico para exponer el agua y las comunidades en la Región de las Cuatro Esquinas. Esperamos que estas imágenes muestren la relación que el agua tiene con las plantas, los animales, los relieves, y los fenómenos meteorológicos. El agua juega un papel importante en la configuración de lo que las personas ven en el medio ambiente y cómo aprenden sobre el mundo natural.


From October 9 - November 9, We are Water is hosting a photo contest to showcase water and communities in the Four Corners Region. We hope that these images will highlight how plants, animals, landforms, weather events, and their connections to water all play an important role in shaping what people see in the environment and how people interact with and learn from the natural world.
