Wikimedia is currently hosting its 2015 Wiki Loves Monuments international photo contest and inviting photographers across more than 30 countries to participate.

The main prize this year is a trip to Wikimania – the official annual conference of the Wikimedia Foundation – in Esino Lario, Italy in June 2016, including travel and accommodation.
