Garden Photographer Of The Year 2008 Contest

The Garden Photographer of the Year competition has issued an international call for entries in its 2008 contest. Amateur and professional photographers can submit single images or portfolios to the competition until January 31, 2008. The top 100 images selected by a panel of judges will be exhibited at The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London, from May to September 2008, alongside the images of established garden and landscape photographers.

Prizes that have not yet been announced will be awarded to a winner and two runners up for both single images and portfolios. A small fee is required to enter, and photographs and portfolios may be submitted in the following categories:

My Garden
Garden Views
Plant Portrait
Life in the Garden
Trees

Photographers under the age of 16 can enter their work for free to compete for the Young Garden Photographer of the Year award. In addition, entries received before July 31, 2007 will be judged in a preliminary competition that will award ten winners a copy of the recently published book The Art of Flower and Garden Photography, by Clive Nichols.

Further details on the Garden Photographer of the Year 2008 contest are available at the competition's Web site.
