Ocean Explorer Young Photographer Competition

Would you like to have your photograph featured in our Ocean Explorer 2022 charity calendar?

You know that feeling you get when you see a sunrise over the dunes that’s so stunning you just have to share? Your dog trying to catch the ocean spray with its tongue or a robin perched in a hedgerow? Your little sister climbing her favourite tree or blue sky and fluffy white clouds reflected in slick sand as the tide goes out? 

Getting out in nature is good for our mental, emotional and physical health; and we believe good things should be shared. We want to encourage our young people to connect to nature and share that connection with others; by building these connections we are inspiring the next generation to love their environment and to protect what they love.
So if you’re 10-16 years old, we’re inviting you to take a camera out on your adventures around northern Devon this October, to capture your favourite moments and enter them into our Ocean Explorer Young Nature Photographer competition. Our twelve favourite images will be chosen to feature in our Ocean Explorer 2022 charity calendar and shared on our blog and social media channels. 

Images need to be of nature (and remember humans are part of nature too, just get permission from any humans who might be part of your photographs). You can get creative, using reflections, juxta-posing man-made structures and nature, turning things sideways or upside down, but most importantly try to capture what you love about the nature on our doorstep.
Proceeds from calendar sales will go towards supporting Plastic Free North Devon’s work protecting and improving the environment for future generations. 

To enter please send your photograph (min 300 dpi) along with where in northern Devon your photograph was taken along with your name, age, and contact details to pfndnaturecomp@gmail.com (if you are under 16 please provide your parent or guardian’s contact details).

Closing date for entries is 9am Monday 1 November 2021 and the winners will be announced in early November.

Good Luck
