Dear Wikimedians,
The 2020 Picture of the Year competition has ended and we are pleased to announce the results:
In both rounds, people voted for their favorite media files.
- In the first round, there were 1104 candidate images.
- In the second round, people voted for the 59 finalists (the R1 top 30 overall and top 2 in each category).
In the second round – the “three votes” was used – eligible users could vote for up to 3 finalists – each of these 3 votes counted equal. There were 1946 eligible voters in R1, and 2333 in round R2.
We congratulate the winners of the contest and thank them for creating these beautiful media files and sharing them as freely licensed content:
- 466 people voted for the winner, File:Alcedo_atthis_-_Riserve_naturali_e_aree_contigue_della_fascia_fluviale_del_Po.jpg.
- In second place, 402 people voted for File:Covid-19_San_Salvatore_09.jpg.

We also sincerely thank all voters for participating. We invite you to continue to participate in the Wikimedia Commons community by sharing your work.
Thanks,the Picture of the Year committee
