Indepth Arts News: "Call for Artists: International Entries Sought for Garden Photographer of the Year 2008" 2007-08-23 until 2008-01-31 Garden and Landscape Photographic Arts (GALPA Ltd) London, , UK United Kingdom
Calling all ‘budding’ garden photographers. Are you the next Garden
Photographer of The Year? With thousands of pounds worth of cash and
prizes up for grabs, this is a unique opportunity for entrants to have
their photographs exhibited for the four summer months of 2008, alongside
some of the world’s most talented photographers in the gardening and
landscape world. Several hundred thousand visitors will see the top one
hundred pictures at a purpose-built outdoor exhibition at The Royal
Botanic Gardens, Kew, London.
We are now calling for entries in the following categories;
Amateur and professional photographers are encouraged to enter single
images or themed portfolios and there will be prizes to suit both types of
entry. There will be a new special award for Young Garden Photographer of
The Year supported by Chris Collins, the BBC Blue Peter Gardener. Entries
for this category are welcomed from young photographers under the age of
16 and are free.
A panel of high-profile industry and art professionals will judge the
competition and the winning images will be displayed from May to September
2008.
For more details on “How to Enter”, please visit www.gpoty.org
Previous competition judge Chris Beardshaw - television presenter and
garden designer, says:
“Our plants and gardens are delightfully dynamic and effervescent - subtly
and constantly morphing. So much can be missed at the blink of an eye but,
thankfully, it is precisely that precious moment that the camera captures
for eternity.”
