Dunedin Botanic Garden launches photo competition

The Dunedin Botanic Garden has launched a photo competition – The Living Lens: Botanical Views.

Running until 14 June, the competition encourages visitors to capture their favourite Dunedin Botanic Garden scenes.

Dunedin Botanic Garden Manager Catherine Bradley says, “The competition is all about getting budding photographers into the garden we know and love.”

“It’s a chance for visitors to take in the sights as the seasons change and get snapping. We want to see people’s favourite botanical views, whether they be focused on our stunning flora or broad array of fauna.”

Open to all ages, the competition has two categories: Flora (plants) and Fauna (people, animals, insects etc); each category is split into three age brackets: Junior (10 years and under), Youth (11 - 17 years old) and Adult (18 years and older).

Winners will receive JB Hi Fi gift cards and their photos will be exhibited at the Botanic Garden Information Centre. Winners will be announced on 1 July.
