The Photography Section of Nature Vancouver holds a Photo Competition every year. All the entries and results of the competition are presented at the March meeting of Nature Vancouver.

Photo Competition 2012
Members may enter a maximum of ten digital photographs and compete in a maximum of three of the five categories. Up to ten photos may be entered in one category or spread over two or three categories. Not more than ten pictures and not more than three categories. Images created in the computer are not eligible. Example: two or more photographs that are combined in the computer.
The Categories:
1. Birds 2. Mammals 3. Botany 4. Entomology and Spiders 5. Other Natural History
The subjects eligible for the last category include reptiles, marine biology, geology and landscape. No photos of birds, plants, mammals, insects or spiders in this category please.
The judges will select a best in show (award $80.00) and a first (award $40.00) in each of the categories.
In addition to the above five categories a sixth category will be open to members of the Young Naturalists Club only. Any natural history subject is eligible for this category and the winner will receive the Al Grass Award.
It is preferred that nature subjects be presented in their natural environment. Evidence of the hand of man will not disqualify an entry but will lower its chances of a win.
Instructions for Entries:
Please e-mail your entries to Ron Long after January 1, 2012. The preferred size of the photos is 1024x768 pixels or any size that can be easily e-mailed. The deadline for entries is February 28, 2012. Please contact Ron at 604 469-1651 for more information.
By submitting your photos to the Nature Vancouver Photography Competition it is understood that you agree to allow their reproduction on the website and in the Nature Vancouver publications, Vancouver Naturalist and Discovery with proper credit. We need more vertical shots to use on the covers.
