The competition is open to anyone from age 16 to age 25. You must be that age on 20th February 2025 and the winner will be announced on the 20th March 2025
Due to the difficulty in the mailing of the prize this competition is only open to young photographers in the UK. There will be more free competitions in the future open to people from all over the world.
All entries must submit 3 images. No more / No less
Your entry will be judged on all 3 images as a group. They don’t have to be of a similar nature. So you can enter a woodland image and a seascape image. But enter your best 3 images.

The 3 images in your set of images must be named as follows

Only one entry per person
Only one set of 3 images per person.
Images must be Landscape Photography
All images entered must be landscape photography. So the predominant part of the image must be of nature. Images may contain man made objects but they must not form a majority of the image.
Excessive editing isn’t allowed
Images can be edited but you can not excessively alter an image. Examples of what isn’t allowed are
Replacing skies
Adding elements of any kind
Any use of AI
Cloning out large areas of an image (small amounts of cloning are allowed)
