Ellen Fitzgibbon Memorial Photography Competition is now open!
When Ellen was small, she devoured James Herriot’s stories of life as a veterinarian and then became one herself, captivated by “all creatures great and small.” With camera in hand, she cast attention, affection, and a sense of humour on her many subjects — a wide-eyed cat, the delicacy of a butterfly’s perch, the glassy stare of a watchful reptile, a neon green chameleon (and patient) named Pickles.

This photography competition welcomes photographers who share Ellen’s appreciation for the natural world and who find inspiration in knowing their photograph might one day grace the wall of a cancer hospital as a messenger of Ellen’s wish “to bring hope and beauty to those facing cancer.”
