Photo Competition Extended

Are you passionate about photography and the natural beauty of our landscape? We invite you to participate in our exciting photo competition, themed "Water in the Landscape." This competition aims to highlight the vital role of water in our environment and inspire awareness and appreciation of our natural surroundings. Whether you’re an experienced photographer or just love taking pictures, this is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your talent and love for nature. 

Suggested Subjects: 

Get inspired by capturing subjects that beautifully represent "Water in the Landscape." Consider photographing animals interacting with water, rain, rainbows, bodies of water, wetlands, dew, droplets, frost, or try your hand at drone photography for a unique perspective. 

Judging Criteria: 

Your submissions will be evaluated based on: 

  • Relevance to Theme: How well the photo captures "Water in the Landscape." 
  • Creativity and Originality: Unique perspectives and innovative compositions. 
  • Technical Quality: Clarity, focus, and overall photographic technique. 
  • Emotional Impact: The ability of the photo to evoke a connection with the viewer. 

Photography Tips: 

For the best results, consider taking photos during the golden hours of early morning or late afternoon, when the lighting is soft and warm. Pay attention to the framing of your shots and try to include interesting elements that lead the viewer’s eye through the image. Experiment with reflections and textures in water to add depth and interest to your photos. 

Get Inspired and Start Snapping! 

Explore your local environment and discover the beauty and importance of water in our landscape. Your photos can make a difference by raising awareness and appreciation for our natural world. We can’t wait to see your amazing work and share in your unique vision of "Water in the Landscape."

Have Your Say on Native Vegetation Management in NSW

The NSW Government is proposing changes to the Land Management (Native Vegetation) Code 2018, and now’s your chance to have input.

The Code plays a key role in supporting landholders to manage their land productively, while also balancing biodiversity conservation across private rural land in NSW. The proposed amendments aim to strengthen environmental protections and deliver on commitments made under the NSW Plan for Nature.

🗣 Community input is vital. A Discussion Paper has been released to guide your feedback, and all members of the public are invited to make a submission.
