Are you the next Garden Photographer of The Year?

There are thousands of pounds worth of prizes up for grabs in the Garden Photographer of the Year competition.

It's a unique opportunity for keen amateurs and professional photographers to have their photographs exhibited at a major London venue, alongside some of the world’s most talented photographers in the gardening and landscape world.

The competition and exhibition Garden Photographer of the Year builds on the highly successful Garden Photographers’ Association’s (http://www.gpa-uk.org) annual competition and exhibition.

Over the last eight years, the GPA has staged increasingly prestigious events culminating with the highly acclaimed exhibition “Imagine, Yesterday Today” at Kew Gardens www.kew.org in 2006

The 2007-8 competition has the following categories;

• My Garden
• Plant Portraits
• People and Animals in the Garden and
• An annual changing category, which will be Trees in 2008

Amateur and professional photographers are encouraged to enter single images or themed portfolios.

There will be a new special award for Young Garden Photographer of The Year supported by Chris Collins BBC Blue Peter Gardener.

Entrants for this category are welcomed from young photographers under the age of 16.

A panel of high-profile industry professionals will judge the competition and the top 100 photographs will be exhibited in London from May to September 2008.
