Calling Sussex photographers! We are looking for entries for our annual photo competition - and we always love seeing your inventive, interesting images. 

This year the theme is All Shapes and Sizes.

We are looking for a diverse range of images that cover the twelve months of the year, capturing the best of the wildlife and landscapes of Sussex, highlighting the macro (perhaps expansive views) and the micro, tiny examples of perfect wildlife - maybe a beautiful orchid, slime mould, lichen or insect. 

Sussex has so much to offer - help us show that off!  We'd love to see what you feel best represents the vibrant, varied qualities of Sussex throughout the seasons with local wildlife shots. Amaze us with images of ladybirds in the park, migrating wildfowl, flowers carpeting a woodland floor or clouds of butterflies. Share the wild places that are special to you. Whether high on the Downs, deep in the woods, on the beach or your favourite urban nature spot. Show us how people care and want nature to be part of their lives.

Upload your photos

First Prize - £100 cash

Runners Up Prize - T-shirt from Sussex Wildlife Trust's Clothing Store

The final 12 photographs selected by our judges will feature in our 2024 online calendar. They will also all be displayed at Sussex Wildlife Trust's AGM.

In addition, the overall winning image will feature in Wildlife magazine, as well as our monthly enewsletter and on the Sussex Wildlife Trust’s website and social media. The winning photographer will also be offered the chance to take over the Sussex Wildlife Trust's Instagram account for a week.
