Entries now open for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010

Entries now open for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010

Brought to you by The Natural History Museum, BBC Wildlife Magazine and Veolia Environment,  Now in its 46th year, the competition has become the international measure for great wildlife photography. It plays a crucial role in raising the profile of wildlife photography and stimulating an awareness of nature conservation, and the winning pictures are seen by millions of people around the world.

We’ve made several exciting changes to the competition this year. For example, we are introducing a brand new special award, called Wildlife Photojournalist of the Year, for the best portfolio of striking pictures that tell a powerful story.

A few other things have changed, too – we no longer allow captive animals, for example – so don’t forget to read the rules properly. Most of all, as part of our continuing efforts to encourage responsible wildlife photography, we stress that it is critically important to put the welfare of the animals and their habitats first.
